The experience
What's special
The Oregon Coast Music Festival grew from a Coos Bay performance of Haydn music into a two-week annual festival that draws 5,000 people to its varied concerts in several Coos Bay area locations. It began in 1978, when Dr. Charles Heiden formed the South Coast Symphonietta and produced a performance of Haydn's Little Organ Mass. Summer concerts take place in Coos Bay, North Bend, Bandon, Shore Acres and Charleston, and many of the orchestra musicians return year after year from Florida, California and across Oregon.
How it works
The 2026 festival included orchestra concerts, a free preview of Orchestra II at Southwestern Community College's Umpqua Hall on 24 July 2026, and a concert by Ian George and the Knee Pockets at 7 Devils Brewing Co. in Coos Bay on 24 July 2026. Orchestra II: Our Blue Home took place on Saturday 25 July 2026 at 7pm at the Marshfield High School Auditorium in Coos Bay, with tickets at $30 ($25) in 2026.
Who it suits
The Oregon Coast Music Association presents a KinderKonzert music-in-the-schools program that introduces local elementary school students to classical music, and provides scholarships and musical instruments to promising young South Coast musicians. The festival draws crowds of locals and visitors for summer concerts and offers some events, such as the Orchestra II preview, free of charge.

Book / infoTaxi & rideshare
Public transit is impractical for airport access here, with taxi/rideshare/rental car as the practical options for reaching Coos Bay, North Bend, Charleston, or Bandon.
Taxis and rideshare such as Uber and Lyft can be limited near the venue, especially late at night or in rural areas. Agree a pickup point and time in advance and keep a backup plan.
🅿 Parking
On site parking available. Cost Festival venues span four communities with different parking situations. Shore Acres State Park requires an Oregon State Parks day-use parking permit: $10/day for Oregon residents, $12/day for non-residents (increased from a $5 fee that applied through 2025), payable at yellow fee machines/QR code onsite, online the day of visit, or via a $60/$75 annual pass. Mingus Park (Coos Bay) and the OIMB Boathouse (Charleston) are municipal/institutional sites.

The South Oregon Coast (Bandon in particular) is a well-established vacation-rental market, so July availability during the festival's two-week run is worth checking early.
Search AirbnbNot a festival-run campground event, but the South Oregon Coast has private-land camping/glamping listed on Hipcamp as a lodging alternative to a hotel for the Coos Bay/Bandon/Charleston area, noted as a general regional option, not venue-specific.
