The Badloves, Jimi Hocking to headline Bruthen Blues Festival

Bruthen Blues Festival
Live At Spectrum

The Bruthen Blues and Arts Festival are celebrating their 25th anniversary this year with three days of blues and arts in and around the picturesque township of Bruthen from 18 – 20 February 2022.

The volunteer-run, weekend-long festival opens on Friday night at the great local music showdown, The Friday Night Jam, with music and fun continuing on until Sunday afternoon at the Sunday Recovery.

The epicentre for action is the free music event in the Main Street Gardens, where the entire town opens up to a huge market, workshops, local food and of course, that great blues sound pulsating from the live music stage.
