Blues festivals are celebrations of deeply rooted American musical tradition

Honoring the blues' spirit of resilience, expression, and community building

And a showcase for both established and emerging artists to share their unique voices

The Bend Blues Fest is the annual culmination of the monthly Bend Blues Revival

  • The Festival will take place at Silvermoon Brewing between 3 professional sound stages — 2 outdoor, and 1 indoor.

    All ages are welcome.

    The audience has access to plenty of shade, cover, seating, gourmet food trucks, restrooms, water, and other refreshments.

    Bring a jacket, hat, and sunglasses — the weather in Central Oregon is changing constantly.

    Parking will be found in the surrounding neighborhood. Expect to walk a couple blocks to the event.

  • The Bend Blues Festival is a big lift —it takes sponsors, venues, artists, and volunteers.
