Carlisle Blues/Rock Festival

Event date: 28/09/2018 - 30/09/2018

Event Location: Crown and Mitre Hotel // Old Fire Station

Friday 28 to Sunday 30 September

A weekend of top class, highest quality live music. It's blues with a rocky edge or is it rock with a blues influence? Either way it's top notch entertainment with musicians playing at the top of their game. It's all totally live, no backing tapes, no auto-tuning just masses of real playing and singing talent. Britain....Europe.....world really does have talent. 14 acts over 3 days all offering something different but all just that bit special.

The 2017 festival was one of 5 in the UK nominated for Blues Based Festival at the UK Blues Awards. 2018 looks set to surpass last year’s success.

The line-up includes Ian Siegal, Thorbjorn Risager & The Black Tornado, Todd Sharpville Band ft Wayne Baker Brooks, plus many many more!

The festival will take place at The Crown & Mitre Hotel on Friday 28 and Saturday 29 September, then switch venues to The Old Fire Station on Sunday 30 September.
