MORE INFORMATION

Nershfest, taking place on August 12, 2023, noon to 10 p.m., is a music festival started by three friends in their own back yard. Inspired by the groovy attitude of Bill Nershi — lead guitarist for the band The String Cheese Incident — the friends created a Spotify playlist festival featuring “sets” from streaming artists on their back yard stage. Thus, Nershfest was born.

Eventually the festival grew from the friends’ back yard to the brewery, adding live bands to the streaming lineup. Inbound is proud to host the 11th annual Nershfest at its taproom. Musical performances will feature local bands on the outdoor stage plus streaming artists on the indoor stage. The evening concludes with a silent disco.
