Mission Statement:

The mission of the Oklahoma’s International Bluegrass Festival, Inc. (OIBF) is to organize an annual world class festival; to support the bluegrass industry in Oklahoma, to educate the people of Oklahoma and beyond about bluegrass music, its history and dominance in Oklahoma, and to promote the annual festival throughout the state, creating an on-going state resource that serves Oklahoma’s economic development. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation, our primary goal is to support youth through music scholarships and continuing music education opportunities. We are also delighted to draw visitors to Oklahoma and historic Guthrie.
