Saturday at The Mountain
Saturday, August 22, 2026 marks the second full day of The Mountain Music Festival, a rock music festival that transforms Gatlinburg into the epicenter of heavy sound and high energy. Thousands of fans will gather inside the Gatlinburg Convention Center for back-to-back concerts that define the weekend.
The full second day will showcase the spirit of a true music festival, with main stage artists delivering unforgettable performances alongside supporting acts that keep the energy alive from start to finish.

THE DAY 2 EXPERIENCE
Day 1 may open the door, but Day 2 is where the weekend becomes truly electrifying. Fans can expect the full festival footprint in motion, with multiple stages, vendor markets, and gathering spaces that keep the atmosphere charged. In past years, Saturday has offered a mix of fan-favorite openers, rising names in the scene, and closing sets that brought the house down.
From the roar of the crowd to the variety of experiences off stage, it’s a full day of connection and sound that sets the tone for the weekend ahead.
COMING SOON: Day 2 Schedule And Set Times
Saturday carries the biggest run of music all weekend, and the final timetable is being completed now. The schedule will show door time, the start of the afternoon sets, the transitions into the mid-day block, and the timing of the evening run on the main stage.
Set times help shape the entire day, from when you head in to when you take a break and when you move toward the rail for the night sets.
The confirmed Saturday schedule will be added once all timing is finalized.
