Bon Iver’s Eaux Claires Festival Confirms 2026 Lineup
Bon Iver’s Eaux Claires festival will return to Eau Claire, Wisconsin on July 24-25, 2026, marking the revival of the beloved music gathering after a multi-year hiatus.
The festival has announced its initial lineup, featuring Lil Yachty, Dijon, Aimee Mann, and Kevin Morby among the performers set to take the stage. Additional artists are expected to be revealed in the coming months.
Eaux Claires, founded by Justin Vernon of Bon Iver and Aaron Dessner of The National, originally ran from 2015 to 2019 before going on indefinite hiatus. The festival became known for its curation of both established and emerging artists across genres.
The two-day event will return to its original location in Eau Claire, though venue details and ticketing information have not yet been released. The 2026 edition will mark the festival’s first iteration in seven years.
Previous editions of Eaux Claires featured performances from artists including Paul Simon, Chance the Rapper, Erykah Badu, and Wilco. The festival also incorporated art installations, collaborative performances, and community programming throughout its run.
Organizers have not announced whether the 2026 festival will maintain the same format as earlier years or introduce new elements to the programming.
