Welcome to the 27th Annual Firefighters Blues Fest!

The Firefighters Blues Festival celebrated its 27th year on Saturday, July 18th, 2026 and we had an excellent line-up for your enjoyment. As usual there was great fun, food, drinks and of course great music! We are busy preparing for the 2027 festival. Information will posted to this website as soon as it becomes available. We would like to thank all of the volunteers who made this event possible including the dedicated efforts of the South Bend Firefighters. We also wish to express our gratitude to all of our sponsors.
