Treefort Music Fest

Is Boise’s creative economy crucial to the dynamic character and cultural growth of Idaho’s capital city?

Treefort Music Fest announced the first wave of artists to perform at Treefort 11 March 22-26, 2023.

The inaugural Flipside Music Fest concluded this weekend in Garden City, where 90 local and out of town bands played across fourteen stages.

The people behind Treefort bring a new music festival to Garden City.

The Sun Valley Film Festival was one of the first events forced to cancel when the pandemic arrived in Idaho in March of 2020.

Treefort Music Fest is returning to its regular March timeslot this year. After the pandemic disrupted the event in 2020 and 2021, organizers are hoping for a smooth event this spring — but with added COVID-19 precautions in place.

Treefort Music Fest ended five days of music, yoga, stories, tech and much more early Monday morning. How did the festival's COVID-19 protocols go? And was the festival able to make enough money to keep the music playing for next year? Treefort Festival Director Eric Gilbert joins Idaho Matters to break it down with us.

Organizers for Treefort Music Fest say they’re holding the safest event they can as local hospitals fill up with COVID-19 patients.

Some of Boise's biggest events are moving ahead despite crisis standards of care being activated statewide this week.

Idaho Matters is joined by Storyfort Director Christian Winn to give us the ins-and-outs of this year’s literature and storytelling fort at the Treefort Music Festival.
