Beaver Island Music Festival Tickets

Beaver Island Music Festival (BIMF) is a cornerstone of Michigan’s island music scene. Founded in 2003 by a dedicated group including Dan Burton, Carol Burton, Bayard Kurth, and Stephen Garcia, BIMF evolved into a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in 2013 and aligned under PARC in 2018. Over the past 23+ years, BIMF has showcased more than 1,800 artists across 320+ acts, energizing Beaver Island’s cultural life and contributing to the local economy. The festival embraces an eclectic mix of genres—from Americana and Blues to Celtic, Folk, and Rock—with programming that includes educational and community activities alongside performances.

Located in the scenic waterside community of Beaver Island, BIMF brings live performances to multiple intimate venues, making it a unique experience for musicians and fans alike. Tickets for BIMF are limited and highly sought after; the 2025 edition was virtually sold out, with 2026 marking the 24th annual celebration. The festival relies on volunteers and local sponsors, creating a collaborative, community-driven atmosphere that mirrors the island’s welcoming spirit.

Beaver Island is accessible from Michigan’s mainland and is anchored by the address used for festival logistics: 28599 Hideaway Trail, Beaver Island, MI 49782.
