Day 1: Let’s gooooooo!🌞🎶 Vibes are high, y’all! The gates are open, the music is tuning up, and the Ranch is already buzzing with that unmistakable Kerrville energy. For the next 18 days, we gather under the oaks to sing, listen, laugh, cry, and be together. Welcome Home, y’all. The 2025 Kerrville Folk Festival starts NOW! Stop by the KFF Foundation booth in Kennedy Theater and buy some raffle tickets while you’re at the show tonight. This sweet art guitar could become yours! You can’t win if you don’t play. #KerrvilleFolkFestival #KFF2025 #WelcomeHome #18DaysOfMagic #FolkFamily (fb)

🌙 LATE NIGHT AT STAFF RECORDS At most festivals, the staff clears out after hours. At Kerrville, they pick up a guitar. Come find us after dark at the @kffstaffrekerrds stage in the campground — where your gate crew, ice slingers, safety leads, and dish washers turn into songwriters, pickers, and full-blown bands under the stars. Over the years, Adrianne Lenker and Buck Meek tossed bags on our recycling team. Anaïs Mitchell poured beer and slang ice at the Kerrtry Store. And the Safety Team? Basically a bluegrass band in disguise. 🎻🚨 You never know who you’ll hear — or who might show up to sit in. #KerrvilleFolkFestival #FolkFest #StaffRecordsStage #CampgroundMagic #AfterHoursFolk #KFF2025 #CelebratingSongwriters (fb)
