Pilgrimage Music & Cultural Festival is THIS WEEKEND! The highly anticipated festival will be celebrating its ninth year at The Park at Harlinsdale Farm in Franklin, TN THIS Saturday (9/23) and Sunday (9/24) with gates opening at 12 p.m. both days. The rocking music lineup features headliners The Lumineers, Zach Bryan, The Black Crowes and Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats. Plus, beyond the music are insanely talented art merchants and mouth-watering food and beverage vendors to round out the Pilgrimage Festival experience. Before making the Pilgrimage there are a few more things to know before going.
ALL advance parking passes are sold-out!
