Austin Blues Festival

April 27 @ 12:00 pm - 10:00 pm

The Austin Music Awards “Best Music Festival” nominee is returning with an expansion from one to two full days of world-class talent for music lovers, by music lovers. Featuring one stage to ensure no overlap (so fans can catch every act they want to see), Austin Blues Festival aims to offer something for everyone by merging classic Blues sounds with fresh and adjacent interpretations of the artform that’s influenced so many others. The stacked music lineup for the 2024 event includes performances from the likes of Buddy Guy, Jimmie Vaughn, Soul Man Sam, Brittany Howard, Robert Glasper, Big Freedia, Cimafunk, and more. The festival will also offer a variety of food options in addition to the Waterloo Park concessions, along with vendors like Big Henry’s vintage records pop-up, and more.
