All Good Presents has announced that 4848 Festival will return to Snowshoe Mountain Resort in Snowshoe, West Virginia, July 15–17, 2027, bringing three days of live music, mountain scenery, and the community atmosphere that has made the festival a summertime favorite. The eighth annual edition will once again take place at an elevation of 4,848 feet, with the full artist lineup set to be revealed on Friday, December 4, followed by tickets going on sale Friday, December 11.
All Good Presents has been promoting, curating and producing jam band festivals since 1996. In 2027, All Good Presents will deliver its 74th and 75th festival events: the 14th annual Dark Star Jubilee in Thornville, Ohio, and the eighth annual 4848 Festival at 4,848 feet from Snowshoe Mountain Resort in Snowshoe, WV.
All Good Presents, perhaps most widely known for its eighteen historic All Good Music Festival & Campouts, returned in 2025 and 2026, reimagined as All Good Now in a new home at Merriweather Post Pavilion. For 2027, All Good Presents has decided to take the year off from All Good Now.
All Good Presents founder Tim Walther said:
“We take the curating of our festivals very seriously. We meticulously program our festivals from the headliner down to the first act of the day with the intention of building the most epic lineup possible based on emerging, established and genre busting artists. Transparently, the lineup was not developing to our standards this year, so we have decided to pause Now and return when all of the stars are in alignment.”
“We understand that many may be disappointed, but this scene is flourishing, the fans are as loyal and feverish as ever and the right time will come for All Good Presents to bring that festival energy back to Merriweather Post.”
“Thanks for all of your love and support and we’ll see you at the clubs, meet you at the Jubilee, and climb mountains with you at 4848!”
In the meantime, 4848 Festival offers another opportunity for the All Good community to come together next summer, carrying forward the company's longstanding approach to bringing great music and good people together in memorable settings. Set high in the Allegheny Mountains, 4848 combines a multi-day music festival with the amenities of a mountain resort, giving fans the chance to enjoy live performances alongside the outdoor activities, lodging, and scenery that make Snowshoe a unique festival destination.
The 2027 edition will be the festival's eighth, continuing an event that has developed its own identity within the All Good family. The full lineup will be announced December 4, with additional details on ticket packages, lodging, and festival activities to follow.
The news comes just two days after All Good Presents announced the lineup for Dark Star Jubilee 2027, which returns to Legend Valley in Thornville, Ohio, May 28–30, 2027. Hosted by Dark Star Orchestra, the festival's 14th annual edition will feature three nights of DSO alongside Greensky Bluegrass, The Allman Betts Band, Melvin Seals & JGB with Mads Tolling, Daniel Donato's Cosmic Country, Pigeons Playing Ping Pong, Dumpstaphunk, Saxsquatch, Jeff Mattson & Friends, Skeleton Crewe, Clay Street Unit, Magoo, Bella Rayne, New Gypsy Cowboys, Hot Like Mars, and Rob K & Sean's Voodoo Mixtape. Early Bird tickets go on sale Friday, November 13, at 10 AM ET at DarkStarJubilee.com.
As a highlight in their club show world, All Good Presents will also produce a special Dark Star Orchestra benefit for the Rex Foundation at The Anthem in Washington, D.C., on Saturday, November 21. Celebrating 45 years of the Grateful Dead's Reckoning, the one-night-only performance will feature DSO recreating a full three-set show from the Dead's historic 1980 acoustic/electric era, beginning with an acoustic set before moving into two electric sets.
The evening will also include an online silent auction hosted by Positive Legacy to benefit the Rex Foundation, continuing the longstanding relationship between All Good Presents, Dark Star Orchestra, and the charitable organization founded by members of the Grateful Dead in 1983.
Together, these events reflect the work All Good Presents continues to do 30 years after its first festivals, bringing artists and audiences together through live music, longstanding relationships, and a commitment to the communities that have supported its events over the years.
