<b>Eight Concerts, Free Community Admission, and an Outstanding Lineup of Bluegrass and Americana Artists Continue Through May 2027</b> VERO BEACH, FL – November 5, 2026 – Following an incredibly successful inaugural season, Vero Heritage, Inc. is bringing the sounds of bluegrass back to historic downtown Vero Beach with its Second Annual Heritage Bluegrass Music Series. Running October 2026 through May 2027, the series features eight evenings of exceptional live music, showcasing accomplished regional and nationally recognized musicians at the historic Heritage Center. Presented in partnership with Hibiscus Vintage Music, the series celebrates the rich traditions of American roots music while introducing audiences to the incredible range of contemporary bluegrass, progressive acoustic, traditional folk, and Americana sounds. “We are incredibly grateful to our headline sponsors, the Graves and Sexton families, for their continued investment in our community and for making this music series free and accessible to everyone. The Heritage Center has been a gathering place for generations, dating back to when the Graves, Sextons, and other pioneer families were helping build the town we know and love today. It is especially meaningful that, generations later, we are still bringing our community together in this historic space with the support of the very families who helped shape its history.” Said Leslie McKenzie the Vero Heritage Center’s Director From Grammy-nominated musicians and award-winning performers to rising stars in the bluegrass community, this year's lineup offers something special for longtime bluegrass fans and newcomers alike. Coming up on November 25th the Heritage Center will ring with the music of Monroeville Bluegrass Band from Smoky Mountains of East Tennessee.
