The Ann Arbor Blues Festival
Recognizing that the approaching 50th anniversary of the mother of all blues festivals could not go unheralded, a small group of blues enthusiasts began the process of recreating and re-energizing the spirit of those early blues festivals. Along the way, we’ve invited a new generation of up-and-coming blues musicians to share the stage with the world’s legends, some of whom were present at the iconic festivals of the 1960s and 1970s.

By design, the 2017 festival was small – a single day. But by every measure, it was a huge success. Building on that momentum, the 2018 festival will expand to a 2-day event and 2019’s 50th anniversary will be a celebration they’ll remember well into the next century.
