Yellow Pine Harmonica Festival

AUGUST 3 – 5, 2023

YELLOW PINE, IDAHO

Each year, during the first full weekend of August, this sleepy mountain village is transformed into the largest festival of it’s kind in the western hemisphere!  While still honoring our harmonica beginnings, The Harmonica Festival has evolved to include all music genres. Musicians from all over the world come to Yellow Pine to perform at the festival. Check the schedule for a list of performers.

UTV TOUR to Yellow Pine!

Take a cruise in your UTV from McCall via Lick Creek road for an amazing drive through the backcountry!  Lick Creek Road takes off from East Side Drive in McCall, passes by Little Payette Lake, climbs over the summit then drops back down onto the South Fork of the Salmon where you’ll follow it up stream until you hit Yellow Pine.   A UTV can get there in a couple hours time and you’ll surely enjoy the scenery along the way!
