20 concerts, 35 guided jams, 325 hands-on workshops 2023 in person

FH In-Person (Westford Regency Inn , MA), Nov 7-10, 2024:

For 15 years in a row, Fiddle Hell Massachusetts was an in-person event. In 2020, we reimagined Fiddle Hell as an online festival and music camp. It was an exciting new way for our music community to reconnect and stay safe during the pandemic. Fiddle Hell Online went live in November, 2020, with video replays for the next 4 months. Although we missed seeing our musical friends face-to-face, and jamming with them in the hallways, we had front-row seats for every virtual session, and were joined by new attendees and instructors from around the world! We had such a good time that we ran 5 more FHOs in ’21-’23, and now Fiddle Hell is online every April.
