ABOUT THE NOR'WESTER
The Nor’wester name has been part of Inland Northwest lore for nearly five decades.
In 1976, Stateline Speedway hosted the original Nor’wester concert — an ambitious event that drew thousands and quickly became one of the most talked-about moments in local entertainment history. While the show itself never unfolded as planned, the story surrounding it became legendary across the region and has remained part of Stateline Speedway’s history ever since.
Now, 50 years later, the Nor’wester returns with a new vision.
The Nor’wester Concert Series is a three-day celebration of live music, bringing together major national acts, regional artists, and fans from across the Inland Northwest for an unforgettable summer experience at Mode Stadium at Stateline Speedway.
Each night features a different genre, creating a diverse lineup and a festival-style atmosphere that blends music, culture, and community. Beyond the stage, guests can explore vendor markets, custom vehicle shows, art installations, food vendors, and more throughout the venue.
What began as a moment in local history has become the inspiration for something bigger.
The Nor’wester Concert Series is about bringing people together, celebrating great music, and creating new memories at one of the Northwest’s most iconic venues.
