Join us in historic downtown for The

11th annual Dripping Springs Songwriters Festival


You are invited to the heart of the beautiful Texas Hill Country to come and enjoy an exciting weekend of phenomenal singer/songwriter showcases. This 3-day music festival treats music lovers to a wide variety of amazing songs and the people and stories behind the finely crafted tunes.
The songwriting showcases give attendees the opportunity to experience tomorrow’s headliners in small-stage "listening room" performances at unique venues in historic downtown Dripping Springs. On 7 stages, featuring 70 shows, 35+ songwriters will perform in an “in the round” Nashville-style song-swap format. In its essence, the Dripping Springs Songwriters Festival is all about finely-crafted SONGS, and the talented folks who have written them. All shows downtown are FREE.
