In 2025 we celebrate our 21st annual Calgary Bluesfest and are thrilled to have a great lineup of world class artists to bring the best in blues from across Canada and beyond.  In late spring we learned we’re being forced to move due to construction at our old venue at Millennium Park. Although we’re very pleased to have found a home at the beautiful, historic location of The Confluence, it will be a very expensive move to overcome at such a critical time in our year.

We have managed to make it through the pandemic and many other hurdles but this is one of the biggest challenges we’ve faced so far.  We anticipate between $40-50k of additional, unexpected expenses and are reaching out to you in hopes that you can help us overcome.

Know that with your donation, you are helping to keep Calgary’s cultural scene vibrant, bringing joy to many families and community members, and you will be helping to keep a vital, longstanding and beloved festival thriving.  Thank you in advance for your kindness. We appreciate your strong sense of community.
