welcome to season 65
From July 2 - August 15, 2026, Season 65 features seven weeks of world-class music led by Music Director Sir Donald Runnicles. This anniversary season celebrates the stunning natural beauty of Jackson Hole as our home, Walk Festival Hall, undergoes a transformative renovation. Classical gems and renowned soloists will grace the Festival stages as the Grand Teton Music Festival “camps out” at venues including the Jackson Hole High School Auditorium, the Center for the Arts, Teton Village Commons, and more.
Season 65 features performances by Capathia Jenkins, Daniel Luis Espinal, Eleni Calenos, José González Granero, The King’s Singers, Madeline Adkins, Maria Ioudenitch, the Punch Brothers and more. Masterworks of symphonic and chamber music grace GTMF’s stages including Beethoven’s Symphony No. 6, Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2, excerpts from Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons and much more.
