The story

Oregon Coast Music Festival in Coos Bay

The longest-running music festival on the Oregon coast, the Oregon Coast Music Festival brings a full festival orchestra and chamber ensembles to Coos Bay, North Bend, Bandon and Charleston each summer, organized by the nonprofit Oregon Coast Music Association across roughly two weeks of concerts.

The southern Oregon coast around Coos Bay built its economy historically on fishing, timber and shipping rather than the arts, making the Oregon Coast Music Festival's survival and growth into the region's longest-running music festival a notable achievement for an area not typically associated with orchestral music.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Rather than concentrating in a single town, the festival spreads its concerts across four communities on the southern Oregon coast, Coos Bay, North Bend, Bandon and Charleston, giving it a genuinely regional identity distinct from a single-city event

02

The mystery stays covered

Its centerpiece is a full festival orchestra assembled specifically for the event, augmented by musicians who return year after year to perform classical repertoire in a part of Oregon better known for its fishing and timber history than for symphonic music, a combination that has kept the festival running longer than any other music festival on the Oregon coast
