"Bon Iver's Eaux Claires Festival is making its return to Eau Claire, Wisconsin for the first time in eight years. Set for July 24th and 25th in a new location, the historic Carson Park, the 2026 edition will be feature sets by Aimee Mann, Dijon, Daniel Caesar, Lil Yachty, Kevin Morby, and something dubbed Bon Dylan."
"Presumably, the Bon Dylan set will be Bon Iver performing Bob Dylan covers. Other highlights include Mann playing her 2000 album Bachelor No. 2 or, the Last Remains of the Dodo in full, and a set billed as Black Sabbath Cover Band Rehearsal. Another unique billing, Urban Classic Presents Revelation: A Retrospective of the Minneapolis Sound will feature songs by the likes of Prince, The Time, Wendy & Lisa, and other legendary Minneapolis names."
"Eaux Claires will also welcome its inaugural class of Writers in Residence, with literary names like Michael Perry, Sheila Heti, Sean Thor Conroe, Hala Alyan, Amanda Petrusich, Jon Mueller, and more "presenting readings, discussions, and collaborations." A press release promises "a full program of fair activities and added fun across Carson Park" will be announced in the near future, while a program dubbed Eaux Claires Days will present special shows and welcome events in Eau Claire itself, "emphasizing the local and the unexpected.""
