90’s Flannel Fest Turns Up the Heat for October 2–3 Return to Moses Lake
Fifth annual concert-campout adds heating throughout the venue and new discounted group ticket packages
Moses Lake, WA – September 8, 2026 — 90’s Flannel Fest returns to the Grant County Fairgrounds & Events Center October 2–3 for its fifth year, bringing two days of live music celebrating the defining artists of 90’s alternative, grunge and rock.
And this year, Flannel Fest is literally turning up the heat.
New for 2026, propane heating towers will be located throughout the festival grounds, while large blowers will pump warm air into the pit area in front of the stage. The additions are designed to keep fans more comfortable as temperatures cool down after dark.
“It gets a little crisp at night, but it IS Flannel Fest,” says co-producer Jason Fellman of Harefest LLC and J-Fell Presents. “We love the outdoor fall atmosphere, and this year we wanted to make it easier for people to stay warm while they’re hanging out with friends and watching the bands.”
The 21-and-over concert-campout features 10 tribute bands over two days. Friday’s lineup includes Red Not Chili Peppers [Red Hot Chili Peppers], Nevermind [Nirvana] and Head Over Feet [Alanis Morissette]. Saturday features Grand Royale [Beastie Boys], Jar of Flies [Alice in Chains], Fighting Foos [Foo Fighters], Outshined [Soundgarden], TribU2 [U2], Corduroy [Pearl Jam] and Nookie [Limp Bizkit].
Also new this year is group pricing, with packages of 10 tickets available at a 20% discount, giving groups of friends another reason to make a weekend of Flannel Fest together.
Fans also won’t have to choose between the music and college football. Flannel Fest’s sports bar will be showing Saturday’s action, including Washington State vs. Fresno State and Washington at USC, allowing fans to keep tabs on the games throughout the festival.
RV and tent camping are available on site, allowing attendees to stay for the entire weekend without leaving the fairgrounds. Blankets and chairs are also permitted in the festival grounds.
Tickets, camping passes and additional festival information are available at 90sflannelfest.com.

Bureau of Land Management Ore. & Wash. - 09/04/26 10:46 AM
PORTLAND, Ore. – As Labor Day weekend approaches, the Bureau of Land Management is reminding visitors that wildfire season is far from over across Oregon and Washington.
More than 2.5 million acres have already burned across the Northwest this year, making 2026 an exceptionally active wildfire season. While temperatures may begin to cool and some areas may receive rain, fuels can remain dry and fire danger can change quickly. September can also bring periods of warm, dry and windy weather that increase the potential for rapid fire growth.
“Labor Day can feel like the end of summer, but it is not necessarily the end of fire season,” said Todd Forbes, acting BLM Oregon/Washington Associate State Director. “We are asking visitors to keep fire prevention in mind as they enjoy public lands this weekend. Conditions can change quickly, and one careless spark can have consequences for communities, wildlife, natural resources, and firefighters.”
The BLM has recently adjusted some closures and restrictions as local conditions change, allowing more opportunities for people to visit public lands. However, fire restrictions remain in effect across BLM-administered lands in Oregon and Washington, and additional local restrictions or closures may apply. Restrictions vary by location based on fire danger, weather, and fuel conditions. Before traveling, visitors should check the latest information for the specific BLM District or recreation area they plan to visit.
“The best wildfire is the one that never starts,” said Josh O’Connor, Northwest Geographic Area Fire Chief for the U.S. Wildland Fire Service. “This Labor Day weekend, we’re asking visitors to know the restrictions, understand the conditions and do their part to prevent human-caused fires.”
The following items remain prohibited on all BLM-administered public lands in Oregon and Washington:
-
Fireworks and sky lanterns
-
Exploding or metallic targets
-
Tracer or incendiary devices
-
Steel-core or steel-jacketed ammunition
For more information on seasonal fire restrictions and fire closures, please see www.blm.gov/orwafire.
