About the Event
An SFF Presents production, Big Ponderoo celebrates the thriving music and arts community of Sisters, Oregon. The festival brings nationally touring Americana, bluegrass and alt-country music to the outdoor venue at Village Green Park in downtown Sisters, OR.

On Friday June 27, the Ponderoo Arts Experience invites visitors to enjoy the Big Ponderoo Friday Art Walk in downtown Sisters, with live music at several galleries. Get your passport stamped at participating galleries to redeem it for a free Little Ponderoo!

After the art walk, all are welcome to attend a free community event on Friday, June 27 from 5:30 - 8:30 pm at Village Green. Attendees can enjoy live music from two festival bands, plus food vendors, beer, wine and cider for purchase, art displays and interactive arts events.

The celebration will culminate with two days of live music June 28 & 29 on two stages.

Ticket price includes a complimentary commemorative 16 oz. pint cup for adult ticket holders, or bring a reusable pint cup from a past SFF Presents event and get a $5 off coupon toward beverage token purchase when you check in for your wristband! No disposable cups will be available at the festival bar in an effort to reduce waste generated at our events.

This is a rain or shine event, so dress for the weather, including chilly high desert evenings!

Friday: free community concert 5:30-8:30 (no ticket required)
Saturday: music runs noon - 11:00 PM (ticket required for ages 6+)
