The festival stretched from 9th & Hamilton Streets to 6th Street showcasing five music stages… the PPL Plaza Stage, Brew Works Biergarten Stage, The Hamilton Kitchen Stage, Queen City BBQ Stage and the Bell Hall Stage.
The musical line-up included regional and local Blues favorites and rising stars from as far as Austin, Texas. Energetic audiences were entertained by The Peterson Brothers, Albert Castiglia, the Clarence Spady Band, The BC Combo, Regina Bonelli and Chaz DePaolo just to name a few.
There was an array of excellent food including pulled pork, chicken, roasted corn, gyros, smoothies, pizza and even crab cakes. Craft vendors joined the festival showcasing their wares from across the region. And, of course, there was plenty of refreshing beverages to be enjoyed with something for everyone.
To celebrate the 10th Anniversary, Gross McGinley, LLP hosted a car show in their parking lot at 7th and Walnut Streets. And, the festival ended with a beautiful fireworks display.
