I’m so excited to call Baton Rouge, Louisiana home. Baton Rouge continues to amaze me with the wonderful food, fun and entertainment. So, guess what’s happening in April? You guessed it! The Baton Rouge Blues
Festival
! The best part of this festival besides the blues and the fun is it’s FREE! You can’t beat free! The festival will be held on April 26 from 10 am-10 pm in downtown Baton Rouge. It will be at Repentance Park. Repentance Park is located between the River Center and Old Capital by the fountain. This is festival is going to be filled with excitement and great blues.

SO, YOU WANT A VIP PASS?

I think that the VIP passes are $1000 but please, correct me if I’m wrong. This package includes passes for four people. It will allow you to have access to premier seating in the comfortable VIP tent overlooking the stage. You will get complimentary food and beverages and 4 Slim Harpo posters.  The festival wouldn’t be what it is today without the help of volunteers.  You don’t have to do anything important to volunteer besides being enthusiastic and committed. If you are interested in volunteering

This is a festival you won’t want to miss. Come on out to the Baton Rouge

I was just looking at my prized 2008 Baton Rouge Fest t-shirt I got at the 2008 festival and decided to surf for pictures online and I saw this site. I drove from Texas to enjoy the festival in 2008 and I had a blast. I remember Tab looking out at us saying " are y'all crazy? " It's raining and no one has left yet!" haha! and we didn't leave. It was fabulous to see everyone playing there most especially Martha and Tab and Kenny. I hope to make it back one day but until then I have the memory and my partially worn out t-shirt. I lost my pictures in a PC crash though. I was hoping there were some on this site. I just wanted to say.... nanc
