The experience

What's special

Cincy Blues Fest is an annual blues festival presented by the Cincy Blues Society and Fairfield Parks and Recreation at Village Green Park, 301 Wessel Dr., in Fairfield, Ohio, just north of Cincinnati. The 32nd edition ran on Saturday and Sunday, 11 and 12 July 2026, with national, regional and local blues artists in an outdoor park with grassy and shady areas. The Cincy Blues Society is an all volunteer 501(c)(3) non profit arts organization formed in 1990, and the festival is a Citybeat Best of Cincinnati award winner for Best Music Festival.

How it works

Admission and parking were free in 2026. Music ran from 2:30 pm to 10:30 pm on Saturday 11 July 2026 and from 12:00 pm to 6:00 pm on Sunday 12 July 2026. Food and drink vendors were on site and the park is in a DORA area. Tents, umbrellas and pets are not allowed, only small coolers are permitted, and visitors can bring their own chairs or blankets.

Who it suits

Cincy Blues Fest is a family friendly event, with a playground and a Kids Zone with fun and games for younger blues fans. The Blues in the Schools Band, a youth music education program, opened the Saturday program in 2026.
