Here is the latest release of the  UK & European Blues Festivals Guide 2022, including blues related workshops, exhibitions and lectures.   At this time some festivals are shown as "2022 - TBA" (awaiting details from the organisers). At least you can see roughly when they will take place (most festivals are at the same time of year within a week or so). Whilst I have taken every care to ensure details are correct, please confirm dates with festival organisers - I have included contact phone numbers, email addresses and website addresses where possible.   Please let me know of any other UK or European blues festivals, workshops, exhibitions and lectures not listed here.  

I regularly update this list as I receive more details from festival organisers, so please check back often. 

COVID-19

As a precaution, please refer to individual festival websites for the latest situation regarding any restrictions, cancellations or re-scheduling.

Hope to see you at some of the festivals.

Keep safe and well.

IN ASSOCIATION WITH COLNE TOWN COUNCIL
PRESENTS


THREE NIGHTS OF INCREDIBLE LIVE MUSIC PERFORMANCES BY 50 BLUES, ROCK, ROOTS & FOLK ARTISTS STAGED IN THE PENDLE HIPPODROME & COLNE MUNI AND SET IN THE BEAUTIFUL TOWN OF COLNE IN LANCASHIRE.

https://www.colneblueslineup.com/

 

Colne Town Council held a meeting last night, Tuesday 12th October, to discuss the future of the Great British Rhythm & Blues Festival with members of the public. Colne Town Council has organised and managed the event since 2017. The public meeting was held at the Municipal Hall, with over 50 members of the public in attendance.

The Council welcomed input from the public and interested parties. Each notion was listened to and documented. 

The meeting is available to view online and, despite what is being said in some areas of social media, no firm decisions and changes have yet been made about the future of the event at this time.

Last month, a report by the Council stated: “It is recommended that Colne Town Council does not reinstate the Great British Rhythm and Blues Festival in its current form in 2022, and that Colne Town Council investigates options for a Music Festival on the August Bank Holiday weekend. The reasons for these recommendations were to allow the Council to still run a festival based on the blues genre on August Bank Holiday weekend, without putting strain on the Council’s resources and finances.”

Councillor Mary Thomas, Chairman of Colne Town Council adds “The Council no longer has the resources to run the Colne Blues event in its current form. However, we are talking with local residents and an organisation who contacted the Council which runs similar festivals. We are listening to suggestions and ideas for the festival from groups of interested parties, local businesses and local residents. What eventual shape this festival will take is yet to be decided.”

ANNOUNCEMENT - 22/09/21

It is with great regret that we announce the end, as we know it, of the legendary Great British Rhythm & Blues Festival in Colne, Lancashire.

The Great British Rhythm & Blues Festival has been bringing wonderful blues music – in its myriad of forms – to Colne for over 30 years.  The event was not only one of Europe’s ultimate contemporary blues festivals, but also a one-of-a-kind and much-loved festival for people of the local area.

The 2019 festival, which attracted over 25,000 people to Colne, won the UK Blues Festival of The Year Award and will now be the final festival under the guise of the Great British Rhythm & Blues Festival. The 2020 and 2021 events were cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Naomi Crewe, Colne Town Council’s Town Clerk (Colne Town Council has organised and managed the event since 2017): “This is a very sad day for the lovers of ‘The Blues’ in Colne, and for all those involved in the event.  Deciding to make the 2019 event the finale of the Great British Rhythm & Blues Festival was an extremely difficult and heart wrenching one to make. During these unprecedented times a decision has been made to create a summer music festival for the town of Colne, which will hopefully have the town as busy as ever, just as it was during the blues weekend in 2019. This will be in addition to the events the council currently provides for the town and its residents, including Christmas in Colne, Halloween in Colne, Easter in Colne, along with numerous other services.”

Although it’s very early in the planning stages, the summer festival will hopefully take place in Colne in August 2022 and feature bands and musicians from Colne and beyond, supporting the local arts and live music scene and much more.

Councillor Mary Thomas, the Chairman of Colne Town Council adds, “The Council no longer has the resources to run the Colne Blues event in its current format. However, we are going to manage a summer music festival in Colne next August, alongside our other provisions for local residents.”

The report to a full Colne Town Ccouncil meeting on Tuesday night (21st September) stated:  "It is recommended that Colne Town Council does not reinstate the Great British Rhythm and Blues Festival in 2022, and that Colne Town Council runs a Summer Music and Food Festival on the Saturday of the August Bank Holiday weekend with an addition to the events budget of £10,000 to cover the event. The reasons for this recommendation are to allow the council to still run an event on August Bank Holiday weekend (or a different date if chosen) without putting strain on the Council’s resources and finances."


Let’s keep the award-winning Great British Rhythm & Blues Festival in the hearts and minds of everyone who enjoyed ‘The Blues’ in Colne and look forward to this exciting new music-based festival in the town.

JULY 4 2020

In all these years AmenoBlues has tried to keep the Festival alive, offering a high quality billboard and bringing internationally-known artists at a price accessible to everyone to a small village, peripheral to the major cultural circuits.

Despite the efforts put in place, the niche music genre and the few resources available, unfortunately, do not allow us to maintain that economic balance that would have allowed us to continue with serenity.

We therefore wish to share a special evening of greeting with our loyal public, which will be the last occasion to enjoy the atmosphere of the square in Ameno. The event will take place on Saturday 4th July and that evening we will try to bring some of the musicians who have characterized the magnificent evenings of past editions to the stage, in a sort of small The Last Waltz.

Amenoblues will continue to organize concerts at the Tornielli Museum, always guaranteeing a high level of musical proposals.

We thank all the fans who have followed us with affection in recent years, we invite you to follow the website and the facebook page to find out the next events.

The 2021 UKBlues Challenge was to have taken place on Saturday 18th September 2021 at the Standard Triumph Club, Herald Ave, Coventry CV5 6UB, a location chosen to help celebrate Coventry being the 2021 City of Culture. However due to the cancellation of the 2020 and 2021 European Blues Challenges, the decision was taken to cancel this year’s UKBlues Challenge and instead to promote an evening celebrating blues in the UK.   A Celebration Of UK Blues took place in Coventry on 18th September and featured UKBlues Award nominees The Stevie Watts Organ Trio with Alice Armstrong and multi award winners When Rivers Meet and Kyla Brox. 

The 2022 UKBlues Challenge is presently being worked on and we’ll have news soon!
