All the action live from America's favorite music and cultural festival
Now in its 11th year, Pilgrimage Music & Cultural Festival is way beyond the average music festival experience. Small enough to feel intimate and curated, but substantial enough to tempt some of the music world’s leading lights to make the journey 18 miles south of Music City to Franklin, the weekend of September 27-28 will see the beautiful setting of Harlinsdale Farm pay host to a stellar array of artists, including John Mayer, Kings of Leon, Sam Fender, and Father John Misty.
Gibson will be there in force, live-blogging from backstage and sharing highlights from the festival. The fan-favorite Gibson Mobile Garage will also be on site, offering festival goers one-of-a-kind opportunities to connect with the brand. Located near the Main Barn area of the Pilgrimage site, Gibson’s Mobile Garage experience is the ultimate destination for music fans to snap a inside the Infinite Guitar Tunnel, jam, learn how to play guitar, meet their favorite artists, and shop the latest Gibson apparel—including the Gibson x Pilgrimage 2025 Collection. Fans will also enjoy additional exclusive experiences throughout the weekend.
