The festival will also include the “Americana Music Triangle Experience” for the second time, according to Live for Live Music. The experience will provide attendees an immersive look into “world-famous music landmarks, tucked-away hamlets, and one-of-a-kind stops along the Gold Record Road.”

In direct partnership with the Recording Academy’s non-profit MusiCares, Pilgrimage will be donating a portion of every ticket sale to helping members of the music community that are in need. Additional partnerships include The Heritage Foundation, BrightStone, High Hopes Development Center, GraceWorks Ministries and Mercy Community Healthcare.
