Annual Oregon Coast Music Festival

The 47th Oregon Coast Music Festival will fill us up with stunning music in July.

Fondly referred to as the “Tanglewood” of the West Coast, the Oregon Coast Music Festival will celebrates its 47th Season and is the longest running music festival on the Oregon Coast! This annual festival boasts two full weeks, including three Saturdays, of classical music and music education for all ages and welcomes more than 80 musicians from across the country.

You’ll find a heady mix of classical and jazz art forms, taking place at venues around the Coos Bay area such as Shore Acres State Park Garden, the OIMB Boat House, stunning Mingus Park, plus a host of free seminars at the Southwest Oregon Community College. Enjoy two full weeks of outstanding music culminating with the 80-member Festival Orchestra performing three concerts in Marshfield High’s Auditorium. 

This year, the OCMA welcomes Maestro Martin Majkut as Music Director and Conductor.
