Cascadia Winter Solstice Weekend runs Thursday December 17 through Sunday December 20, 2026.

Produced by the Cascadia NW Arts and Music Festival, a program of the Department of Bioregion, the Winter Solstice weekend turns toward the longest night of the year with music, art, and gathering.

Cascadia NW has been convening people in the forests of Cascadia since 2014 around a simple invitation: be present with yourself and with the place you are in. The Winter Solstice weekend carries that into the dark half of the year, when the bioregion asks something different of us than the summer does.

Venue and lineup are still to be announced. Limited full weekend passes and tickets will be available at cascadianw.org.
