Wilder Frets: Umpqua Lighthouse State Park

Under the artistic direction of Tye Austin, Wilder Frets: Classical Guitar in the Wilderness will embark on its inaugural 2026 tour, presenting more than 30 outdoor concerts at 16 remarkable wilderness locations across Oregon.

The series replaces the traditional concert hall with immersive wilderness landscapes—including state parks, farms, ranches, wineries, hot spring resorts, and other unique locations throughout the state. Audiences experience each performance through wireless headphone technology, allowing them to move freely and explore the surrounding landscape within a quarter-mile radius as the music accompanies their wanderings through each Wilder setting.

A portion of all ticket proceeds will be donated to support the Oregon State Parks and Recreation Department and its ongoing efforts to preserve and enhance Oregon’s treasured public lands for future generations.
