Eaux Claires, also known as the Eaux Claires Music & Arts Festival, is a two-day music and arts festival that takes place in Eau Claire, Wisconsin founded by Aaron Dessner of The National and Justin Vernon of Bon Iver.
Originally running from 2015 through 2018, the festival went on indefinite hiatus the following year. In late 2025 the official social media accounts announced that the festival would make a return July 24–25, 2026.
Vernon described as the festival as the antithesis of "all the things I hate at festivals: really loud music all the time, no breaks, bad food, all that kind of thing."
Past performers at the festival included Bon Iver, The National, Paul Simon, Chance the Rapper, Lizzo, Indigo Girls, Wilco, Sufjan Stevens, Erykah Badu, Spoon, Blind Boys of Alabama, Sturgill Simpson, Doomtree, Vince Staples, Tenement and James Blake.
