🎶 ANNOUNCEMENT: The End of The Best "Dam" Blues Fest 🎶
To our loyal fans, incredible musicians, volunteers, vendors, and community supporters — after many great years, we are announcing that The Best Dam Blues Fest will not be returning, now or in the future...
Despite our Team’s commitment to keeping this local tradition alive, a variety of challenges — including the withdrawal of support from the Downtown Thiensville Business Association — have made it unsustainable to continue the event. This wasn’t an easy decision, but it became clear that the festival could no longer operate without key community partnerships in place, amongst other issues.
We’re proud of what we built together — an authentic, soulful, and much-loved celebration of blues music right here in the heart of Thiensville. We thank each and every one of you who showed up, tuned in, volunteered, performed, danced, and helped make it unforgettable.
The music may be quieter now, but the memories will play on.
With gratitude and a big THANK YOU!
The Best Dam Blues Fest Team 💙🎸
