Durango Bluegrass Train set to debut in Colorado
A new musical tradition is set to roll through the San Juan Mountains this spring.
The Durango Bluegrass Train will make its highly anticipated debut in May, featuring six live bluegrass performances aboard the historic Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad.
Tickets are on sale now for the journeys on May 28, 29 and 30, 2026
The inaugural lineup showcases an energetic mix of regional standouts and seasoned pickers, including The Fretliners, High Country Hustle, Alex Graf Duo featuring Eli Emmitt, Humbletown Duo, Lightweight Travelers, and The Brothers Santos.
As the train winds through the Animas Valley and climbs toward the San Juan National Forest, each artist will perform simultaneously in separate railcars.
Guests are invited to move freely from car to car, dancing and watching the performers while enjoying panoramic mountain views.
Four coaches offer seated accommodations, while two open, standing-room-only cars are designed for dancing.
Onboard bars will serve Colorado craft beer, wine, and canned cocktails throughout the evening.
Although Thursday, Friday and Saturday feature the same lineup, each night brings its own unique energy.
The Durango Bluegrass Train builds upon the success of the Durango Blues Train, which for more than a decade has drawn music fans with its blend of live music amid inspiring scenery.
Tickets are on sale now at $165 per person, age 21+ only.
The train departs at 7:00 pm and includes a 15–20-minute break at Rockwood.
Durango Bluegrass Train returns at approximately 10:30 pm
