DelFest was born from the desire to create a family-friendly music festival celebrating the rich legacy of McCoury music by providing a forum for world-class musical collaborations while also exposing fresh new talent. Produced in association with High Sierra Music, Delfest will offer a quality festival experience stamped with the unique McCoury touch.
