Not Sure Which Night To Attend Bluesfest 2020? We Reckon We Can Help With That

Choosing what day to attend a festival can be tricky; maybe your boss is being stingy with that annual leave approval, maybe you've only got the babysitter locked in for a night...

Acts like Patti Smith & Her Band, Lenny Kravitz, Crowded House, Dave Matthews Band and more have been locked in for the 2020 event so we understand the stress of having to choose but fear not because we reckon we can help with that. 

Bluesfest is gearing up for a huge Saturday night for the festival with a stack of local and international talent to take the stage and have you dancing all through the night, so we reckon that this is your one-night pick (you can check out latest line-up additions over here though). 

Here are the acts you can catch:

Allen Stone

Sometimes you just wanna put on your dancin' shoes and we reckon that Allen Stone would be up for that. Find out more about him here.

Ani DiFranco

We might have let out a soft gasp when Ani DiFranco was added to the 2020 Bluesfest line-up. You can expect to see us in the crowd quietly sobbing while she plays.
