Bluesfest

Toto and Christopher Cross will perform at Bluesfest over this year's Easter weekend.

“Do we have to say it’s the last Bluesfest to get people to focus on us?”

“This mix of legendary performers and up-and-coming talent is what makes this announcement so special and uniquely ours,” Peter Noble said.

"The arts, and events like Bluesfest, are worth protecting," Noble said in an open letter.

"Now is your last chance to experience our beloved festival."

Is a government rescue of festivals the answer to reviving the music industry?

"As much as we would like to see more people come, it's not going to happen until the interest rates drop. We do ask our government to support our industry until then."

On the home stretch, but still with a big day of even bigger names ahead....

By the festival’s “hump day", the sun had finally chased away the clouds, and it seemed like there was nothing but blue skies and good vibes.
