Roots N Blues Festival 2021
It’s simple: We trust health care professionals. The health of our community is our first priority. The safest way to enjoy live music right now is to be vaccinated against COVID-19. To ensure a safe event and a lasting tradition, we ask all attendees to provide proof of full vaccination against Covid-19 and/or negative Covid-19 test results. To gain entry to Roots N Blues, you will need to verify this information using CrowdPass.
It is recommended that ALL attendees, regardless of vaccination status, obtain a negative test before entering. For more information on our current COVID-19 mitigation efforts, as well as resources for local testing, visit this link.
What were we up to in 2020?
The Roots N Blues Festival experienced a complete halt in revenue due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This year presents the opportunity to safely return to Stephens Lake Park.
Due to a reduced capacity, increased cost for enhanced public health measures, and the slow return of the industry, Friends of the Festival was formed as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit committed to sustaining the Roots N Blues Festival.
