We’re encouraging everyone to register for free tickets this year to help us better understand our audience, plan for attendance, and keep you informed as the festival approaches. Our grantors also ask us to report where our audience comes from, so collecting ZIP codes helps us secure the funding that keeps the festival going and admission-free for everyone.

Tickets are encouraged but absolutely NOT required! The festival remains admission-free and open to everyone. No one will be turned away for not having a ticket.

BE THE FIRST TO KNOW! Opt in to receive text messages when registering for your free tickets, and you’ll be among the first to hear about artist lineup announcements, festival news, show details, and important updates!

As a nonprofit organization, we gratefully welcome donations to help support the festival and our year-round educational and community programs, but donations are entirely optional and never required to attend.

The three-day New York State Blues Festival celebrates blues music’s far-reaching influence by bringing together a diverse lineup of outstanding artists from across the country and beyond.

Our mission is to preserve, protect, and promote blues music and culture. Through live performances, educational initiatives, and community engagement, we celebrate the blues and its important role in shaping popular music in the United States and around the world.

More details coming soon! We’ll announce the artist lineup, performance schedule, VIP upgrades, parking information, on-site RV camping, and more as we get closer to the festival.

For now, claim your free tickets, add the dates to your calendar, and invite your friends and family to join us for three great days of blues music!
