Beartrap Summer Festival | Casper, Wyoming

The Beartrap Summer Festival marks 25 years+ of music on the mountain this summer with everything that’s kept crowds growing for a quarter-century: sunshine, mountain air, vendors, food and drink … and a great roster of musicians for this milestone celebration, August 7 and 8 in Beartrap Meadow on Casper Mountain.

Like many of you, we at the Beartrap Summer Festival were shocked and saddened at the sudden passing of our friend and Beartrap alumni Charlie Daniels.

With a heavy heart, we at the Beartrap Summer Festival have made the tough decision to cancel the 2020 event, and look forward to an even bigger celebration with our festivarians next year, August 7th and 8th, 2021.

With the rapidly changing developments happening with the COVID-19 virus, we are taking steps to ensure that all involved are safe.

This year marked the 25th anniversary for the Beartrap Summer Festival and this is a year that will never be forgotten.

Mark Chesnutt turned the meadow into one big honky-tonk party. Boots were stomping, the ladies were dancing, and it was one good ol' time.

Wyoming native and son of Chris LeDoux, Ned LeDoux is carrying on the legacy while coming into his own.

The Rad Trads hit the stage with their smooth indy rock vibe. Loaded with a wicked trumpet player and smooth saxophone, they definitely brought the groove.

Based out of Sheridan Wyoming, Tris Munsick and the Innocents are about as country as they come.

The sound of the Jon Stickley Trio could not fit (or should not fit) into one genre. Their sound fuse so many different rhythms and textures.
