Carrboro Songwriters Festival brings together outstanding songwriters from across the Southeast and beyond for a weekend devoted to the thing that matters most: the song. The festival takes place from October 16 to 18, 2026. Across three days and multiple Carrboro venues, you’ll hear Nashville-style songwriter rounds, intimate performances, unexpected collaborations, and a few provocative panels discussions exploring the world behind the music — how songs get written, how artists get heard, what makes a great performance, and where the industry is headed. All the events are free to attend. Sets are each 45 minutes long and take place: Friday, October 16: 4 to 8 p.m. Saturday, October 17: 12 to 8 p.m. Sunday, October 18: 1 to 8 p.m.
