Get ready for the 24th Annual Monterey Bay Blues Festival on June 26-28, being held at the beautiful Monterey Fairgrounds.

The Monterey Bay Blues Festival was founded in 1986 when a group of local community citizens envisioned a dream of perpetuating the American Art form “The Blues” and promoting youth and the Arts. Today their dream is being realized. Every year the event is held on the fourth Saturday weekend in June, in the beautiful oak studded venue of the Monterey Fairgrounds in Monterey, California. The Monterey Bay Blues Festival is considered one of the premier Blues festivals in the country, one that continues to attract and feature world-renowned blues artists as well as budding young artists.
