The experience

What's special

Billed as Pennsylvania's largest blues festival, this family-owned event has run every July since the late 1990s on a scenic working farm in Nescopeck. Three days of world-class blues across two stages, with on-site camping, southern-style barbecue, food and craft vendors, and a relaxed family atmosphere; kids 12 and under get in free

What people love

Attendees repeatedly single out the top-shelf music and atmosphere, a friendly crowd and helpful staff, and how easy it is to get right up close to the artists on the main stage

Last time around (2026)

The 29th annual edition took place July 9-11, 2026 across two stages on the farm in Nescopeck, continuing its 'Best Weekend of the Year' run with camping, food and craft vendors

Getting there

How do I get to Briggs Farm Blues Festival?

By car

Most people drive to Briggs Farm Blues Festival. The nearest major airport is AVP, and from there it is a straightforward drive to the venue. Check current road and traffic conditions before you set off, and see parking below.

By train

No direct passenger rail to the venue was found. Drive, fly in, or use a shuttle instead.

By bus & public transit

No scheduled intercity bus or public transit route to the venue was found. Drive, fly in, or use a shuttle instead.

Taxi & rideshare
Uber / Lyft / airport taxis at AVP (Wilkes-Barre/Scranton International)~40-50 min · ~$40-65 one-way (UberX estimate ~$42 for the Nescopeck-AVP run per uphail.com; expect the higher end for the interstate routing or event surge)

AVP is roughly 30 road miles northeast of Briggs Farm via I-81 S and I-80 W. Taxis wait outside the terminal's baggage claim, and the airport lists ride-share services among its ground-transport partners; Uber/Lyft both operate in the Nescopeck/Berwick area. No public transit, rail, or intercity coach reaches Nescopeck and the festival runs no airport shuttle, so this is the only non-driving door-to-door option

Book / info →

Taxis and rideshare such as Uber and Lyft can be limited near the venue, especially late at night or in rural areas. Agree a pickup point and time in advance and keep a backup plan.

🅿 Parking

Cost Free. "Parking is FREE here at the Briggs Farm Blues Festival! Upon arrival you will be directed to the closest available spot, with designated Handicapped and Motorcycle parking spots." Parking lot opens 9am Thursday/Friday. Key caveat for campers: "Cars that enter festival grounds cannot exit until the festival has ended", day-trippers and anyone needing to come-and-go should use the (free) parking lot, not drive onto the campgrounds

🚙 Car hire

Rural farm festival with zero public transit within reach and no official shuttle, car hire is the primary option for fly-in attendees; AVP has six on-airport agencies (Avis, Budget, Dollar, Enterprise, Hertz, National) with counters at baggage claim and a walkable rental-car facility
