Ocean Alley, John Williamson & More Join Bluesfest 2021 Line-up

"My focus right now is on bringing this festival home in 2021.”

Another batch of local talent has joined Bluesfest’s 2021 line-up.

Today’s announcement is another all-Aussie offering from the beloved Byron Bay event, which is slated to return to Tyagarah Tea Tree Farm from 1-5 April.

With the likes of Bon Iver, Jimmy Barnes, George Benson, Patti Smith & Her Band, Tash Sultana, The Church, Kev Carmody and more already confirmed, Ocean Alley, John Williamson, Tex Perkins (The Man In Black), Jon Stevens, Josh Teskey & Ash Grunwald, Vika & Linda, Garrett Kato and Mia Dyson join the bill.

“Time will tell, but It is being said that the 2021 Bluesfest line-up is the greatest assembly of Australian artists to ever perform at one event,” Festival Director Peter Noble OAM said.

“Ticket sales are showing that the Australian public is ready to celebrate safely and we are on target for a sell-out at our expected capacity. My focus right now is on bringing this festival home in 2021.”

Tickets for the festival are on sale now, head to theGuide for all the info.
