The 5th Annual Yellowstone Songwriter Festival will be held in downtown Cody, Wyoming September 11 – 13, 2025. This festival showcases the art of songwriting for three days in Cody. This year’s line-up includes five Nashville hit songwriters and eighteen rising stars who will perform 24 unique shows in six of Cody’s premier restaurants, bars, and theaters.

Twenty-two songwriters from across the country  will perform their songs and tell the stories behind those songs creating a musical experience like no other festival. This combined group of songwriters have charted more than 20 #1 hits and hundreds of Billboard’s Top Ten Hits for performing artists like Blake Shelton, Luke Combs, Tim McGraw, Conway Twitty, Luke Bryan, Alan Jackson, Martina McBride, Lonestar, Montgomery Gentry, Lee Ann Womack and many more!

Although the line-up is impressive, it is not so much who will be at the festival as it is what these talented musicians have created! You probably listen to their songs on the radio, now your opportunity its to hear them from the songwriter who wrote them.  – The Songwriters!

In addition to the hit songwriters, eighteen singer-songwriters from Wyoming, Montana, Colorado, Tennessee, Kentucky, North Dakota, Texas, and British Columbia will also join the festival. These original artists will perform 24 shows in the bars, cafes, restaurants, and theaters of downtown Cody including Chamberlin Inn, Silver Dollar Bar, Proprietress, The Station, Cody Theater, BLANCA TATANKA and Cody Auditorium. Each day we will have multiple shows happening at once with 2-3 artists sharing the stage together to create a unique show, the streets of downtown Cody will be exploding with talent.”
