Black-eyed & Blues Fest

24th Annual Black-eyed & Blues Fest 2025
BBQ & Brews from Black-eyed Sally's
8.2.25

The Black-eyed & Blues Festival was created in 2001 as a partnership between the Greater Hartford Arts Council, The Hartford Advocate and Black-eyed Sally’s. Our original goal was to produce a free blues and roots & rock music festival under the stars of Hartford that would provide access for city residents, quality entertainment and economic development by drawing suburban dwellers back into the

city. Continuing that mission since 2001 the Black-eyed & Blues Fest has brought world class musicians and local aspiring artists together in downtown’s crown jewel, Bushnell Park. These concerts provide access to the arts for audiences of all ages in greater Hartford, and invigorate the cultural community. In fact, the event has become the longest running free Blues Festival in the state of Connecticut.
