A brand-new, large-scale music festival, Blessing in Disguise Music Festival (BID), will be debuting in summer 2026 at ONE Spokane Stadium and the surrounding area.
The one-day festival, promoted by Live Nation, will feature 20 acts across four stages, showcasing a wide spectrum of rock with a focus on alt-rock, pop-rock, and emerging subgenres as well as regional talent.
Spokane local and national artist Allen Stone is collaborating with Blessing in Disguise as an ambassador, supporting the event in a creative and community-facing capacity. Long active in highlighting and championing Spokane’s music and arts scene, Stone is excited to collaborate with the festival to continue shining a light on the city’s creative energy. Designed to celebrate creativity, community, and Spokane’s resilient spirit, the festival aims to bring artists, fans, and the broader community together for a shared cultural experience.
TICKETS: A limited number of Early-Bird General Admission Tickets will be available starting Friday, December 19 at noon for $75.00 plus fees at bidmusicfest.com. Prices will increase to $95.00 plus fees when the festival lineup is announced in early 2026. Findlay Lexus and Findlay Toyota VIP Experience Packages will also be available during the Early-Bird period, along with a late night DJ add-on set to be held inside The Podium Powered by STCU.
A portion of proceeds from every Blessing in Disguise Music Festival ticket sold will benefit the Team Gleason Foundation, supporting its mission to empower people living with ALS through technology, equipment, and life-enhancing experiences. By partnering with Team Gleason, the festival extends its spirit of resilience and renewal beyond music, helping to improve lives and raise awareness for the ALS community.
The economic impact for the one-day annual event is estimated to be around $4–5 million dollars with the potential to increase as the festival grows. Blessing in Disguise will welcome up to 20,000 guests and estimates that 30–35% of ticket holders will be traveling from outside a 50-mile radius to Spokane. The excitement surrounding the new festival has already attracted strong support, with Columbia Bank joining as an early sponsor in alignment with the event’s vision, its commitment to Team Gleason, and its focus on the community. Additional early BID partners include Findlay Lexus, Findlay Toyota, The Inlander, and KXLY Radio Group.
