Fans feared the worst after Grand Point North was canceled in 2020 and failed to return in ensuing years. Potter herself expressed skepticism about whether her fest would come back. But this year, in partnership with Cabot Creamery, she once again hosts a long weekend of top-tier music from the Green Mountains and beyond.

Potter takes center stage for the weekend, headlining both Saturday and Sunday, July 27 and 28. Saturday’s support acts include Ohio singer-songwriter Michael Marcagi, Boston’s Copilot and a strong Vermont contingent: folk singer Henry Jamison, singer-songwriter Sarah King and rockers the Bubs. Sunday’s openers are Nashville roots rocker Anderson East and another full slate of Vermont musicians, including soul outfit Acqua Mossa, blues act All Night Boogie Band and singer-songwriters Ali McGuirk and Marcie Hernandez.
