Bigstock returns to Hoodoo Ski Area

Bigstock is returning to Hoodoo Ski Area on September 6-7 as a benefit for Oregon Adaptive Sports (OAS) and Cascadia Wildlands.

Billed as "Two Days of Music in the Mountains," Bigstock will be headlined by award-winning artists, including Greensky Bluegrass, Margo Price, and Oteil and Friends, featuring Melvin Seals, Steve Kimock, Jason Crosby, Johnny Kimock, Tom Guarna & Lamar Williams Jr., and more.

The event includes two days of music, food and drink vendors, educational tables, late-night shows in the lodge, and optional camping at 5,000 feet in the heart of the Oregon Cascades.

"We're so excited to have expanded Bigstock to two days of music in the mountains. It feels good to giveback and to gather for the love of music. Hoodoo is a great venue and is thrilled to host such a meaningful event," said JJ Jones, founder of Bigstock.

Now in its 15th year, Bigstock Fundraiser has a sole mission of raising funds through philanthropic events. From the early years of backyard concerts featuring local bands entertaining a few hundred people to now hosting at Hoodoo Ski Area and entertaining up to 3,000 guests, the production and its popularity has grown significantly.

"For over a decade Bigstock has rallied the community to generate incredible support for the mission of OAS while celebrating great music and the beauty of Oregon's outdoor spaces," said OAS Executive Director, Pat Addabbo. "Coming together for the second time at Hoodoo Ski Area, a place where OAS has provided thousands of opportunities for individuals with disabilities to enjoy the thrill of skiing, creates a magical environment in one of our most cherished places."

"Seeing live music and enjoying Oregon's great outdoors are a quintessential summer combination," said Josh Laughlin, executive director of Cascadia Wildlands. "Bigstock 2024 is sure to be a memorable opportunity to share our environmental mission with showgoers amidst a majestic backdrop of the Cascade Mountains and cutting-edge performances."
