Big Ears opens presales for its reserved seat concerts on November 10 and 11

Big Ears returns to downtown Knoxville, Tennessee, from April 1 to 4, 2027, with more than 250 concerts and performances. The lineup includes Jeff Tweedy, Robert Glasper, Natalie Merchant, Norah Jones, Brad Mehldau, Weyes Blood, Gillian Welch and David Rawlings, Courtney Barnett, Thundercat, Sylvan Esso and Mavis Staples. Four day general admission is now $550 in Wave 2; the $450 Early Bird and $500 Wave 1 passes have sold out. A few concerts, including Norah Jones and The Roots, are reserved seat and ticketed separately. Passholders get presale access on November 10 (VIP and Premier) and November 11 (general admission and single day), both at 9:00 am Eastern.

Reserved seat concerts are not included with any pass, so a pass gets you into the queue, not a seat. If one of those shows is the reason you are going, set a reminder for the morning of the presale for your pass type.

Every week we gather the questions you asked most, and try to answer them.

You askedLas Vegas and the Delta4 days ago

You asked when the next Big Blues Bender is. Most of next September's packages are already gone

The Big Blues Bender returns to the Westgate Las Vegas from Thursday 9 to Sunday 12 September 2027, with Tedeschi Trucks Band, Beth Hart, JJ Grey and Mofro, Christone "Kingfish" Ingram, Tab Benoit, Samantha Fish and Robert Randolph at the top of a 21 act bill. It sells hotel and music packages, and its own site marks the suites, the VIP upgrades and the $695 four day music only wristband sold out, while saying plenty of rooms remain. A reader also asked about blues festivals in Mississippi. Clarksdale's Juke Joint Festival, the 24th, is built around Saturday 17 April 2027, with 17 free daytime stages over eight blocks and about 25 night venues on a wristband; pre sales start on 1 January. Mighty Roots at Stovall Farms has set 24 and 25 September 2027 for its seventh year.

In Las Vegas the room is the ticket, so which room types are left decides the trip. In Clarksdale the daytime stages cost nothing, and the night wristband is cheapest bought early.

Signal Bing this week: 'big blues bender 2027' drew 60 impressions and 2 clicks. Ask Froligo: 'blues festivals in Mississippi', asked on 12 October.

M3F puts FISHER, Joji, Sammy Virji, Disco Lines and Lola Young at the top of its March bill in Phoenix

M3F returns to Steele Indian School Park in Phoenix on Friday 5 and Saturday 6 March 2027, with FISHER, Joji, Sammy Virji, Disco Lines and Lola Young as headliners and 23 acts in all, among them Thundercat, Flying Lotus, SIDEPIECE, BLOND:ISH and Tiga. The festival's ticket page lists general admission from $152, VIP from $252 and the Club Pass from $752, fees included, and children 12 and under get in free with a ticketed adult.

Thundercat and Flying Lotus on one bill is the draw for anyone who follows the Brainfeeder side of hip hop. It also lands the weekend after Innings in Tempe, so a Valley trip at the turn of March can take in both, and the price on the ticket page already includes the fees.

Verified Dates, venue and the age rule from the festival's own FAQ, 8 November; headliners, the full bill and prices from the official ticket page the festival's site links, read 8 November.

Coming upSanta Fe in December, Sarasota by March4 days ago

Classical music does not stop for winter. It goes indoors, from Santa Fe's carols to Sarasota's opera season

The Santa Fe Desert Chorale's Winter Festival opens the season on 12 December: 24 professional singers in the Cathedral Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi for nine Carols and Lullabies concerts to 22 December, one of them across in Albuquerque, with Caroline Shaw and Eric Whitacre beside the carols. January belongs to chamber and early music. Northwestern's Winter Chamber Music Festival runs 8 to 31 January in Pick-Staiger Concert Hall in Evanston; the Tucson Baroque Music Festival plays St. Philip's in the Hills and Grace St. Paul's over the weekend of 15 to 17 January; Early Music Seattle's Winter Festival runs 21 to 24 January, ending at Town Hall, and the Seattle Chamber Music Society's Winter Festival follows at Benaroya Hall's Nordstrom Recital Hall on 22 to 31 January, six concerts under James Ehnes with 22 named players. New Music Miami's ISCM Festival runs free at the Jewish Museum of Florida from 13 January to 24 March. February is Florida and Arizona: the 92nd Bach Festival of Winter Park fills Knowles Memorial Chapel from 5 to 28 February, Sarasota Opera's winter season puts La traviata, H.M.S. Pinafore, Ariadne auf Naxos and Jenůfa in repertory at the Sarasota Opera House from 6 February to 21 March, and the Tucson Winter Chamber Music Festival reaches its 33rd year at the Leo Rich Theater on 21 to 28 February.

None of these is a field with a stage. They are halls, churches and an opera house, which is why they run in winter, and several are cheap: Northwestern's concerts are $40, and Miami's new music series is free. If you want a January trip built around music, Seattle has two festivals in the same week.

Verified Every date, venue and programme from the organisers' own pages, 2 November: Desert Chorale's concert listing, Northwestern's Bienen School calendar, Arizona Early Music, Early Music Seattle, the Seattle Chamber Music Society's festival page, FIU's festival page, the Bach Festival Society, Sarasota Opera's season page and Arizona Friends of Chamber Music; prices from our records, read on the organisers' ticket pages the same day; every organiser page re-read on 3 November.

Merrie Monarch ticket requests can be mailed from November 16

The Merrie Monarch Festival runs March 28 to April 3, 2027, in Hilo on Hawaii Island. Tickets are by mail request only. Requests postmarked before November 16, 2026 will not be accepted and are returned. Each request needs the festival's ticket request form, payment by cashier's check or money order in U.S. dollars, and a self addressed, stamped legal size (#10) envelope with U.S. postage. Each person may buy a maximum of two tickets, and each ticket admits one person to up to three nights of competition.

Prices depend on seating section and the number of nights, and are on the request form, not the web page. The festival advises against buying a money order before the last week of October, because it may expire, and does not sell blocks to tour groups or travel agencies.

Washington crosses the Delaware twice this December, in the crossing's 250th anniversary year

Washington Crossing Historic Park stages two crossing reenactments this year, 250 years after the night in 1776. The First Crossing is on Sunday 13 December from 10 to 3, with the boats on the Delaware at about one o'clock; admission is $10 for adults, $6 for children 5 to 11, free under 5, or $30 for two adults and two children. The 74th Christmas Day Crossing is on Friday 25 December from noon to 3, crossing at about one, and free. Both need advance registration this year because of the crowds expected, with tickets at the door only if an event has not sold out.

The crossing depends on the river and the weather on the day, and the park posts its call by eight that morning; if the boats cannot cross, the reenactment still goes ahead on the bank. The free Christmas Day crossing is the one to register for early.
