The Minnesota Yacht Club Festival returns to the banks of the Mississippi River for three days of live music, great food, and unforgettable summer memories. Held at Harriet Island Regional Park in downtown Saint Paul, the festival brings together nationally recognized artists, rising performers, and music fans from across the Midwest for an outdoor concert experience.
Festivalgoers can enjoy performances across multiple stages (with no overlapping sets) set beneath towering cottonwood trees with scenic river views. The 2026 lineup features major headliners including The Lumineers, Matchbox Twenty, and The Strokes, along with dozens of other artists spanning indie rock, alternative, and pop.
With three days of music, local food and beverage vendors, and a lively waterfront setting, the Minnesota Yacht Club Festival has quickly become one of the Twin Cities’ must-attend summer events.
