ATTENTION NIAGARA FALLS BLUES FESTIVAL FANS:
Niagara Festival & Entertainment Group thanks you for your loyal support of our show over the past 10 years!
We are saddened to have to announce that due to numerous scheduling conflicts we will be unable to devote the needed attention to the production of our customary high quality show this year.
We have decided, in the best interest of keeping our show the world class event it has become, to postpone the Festival for one year. Our plan is to return to production in 2019, bigger and better than ever.
We share your disappointment and appreciate your understanding. We feel that this is the best decision to maintain the highest quality show possible.
We do have plans this Aug. or Sept. for an Imperial Garage Reunion and to hold the annual Classic Car and Bike Cruise. We will keep you updated with posts on social media as we have more info.
We look forward to seeing you all again in 2019.
Thank you for your continuing support,
Toby, Sherry, Mary Jo, Remy, and all of our devoted volunteers

1/30/18 We were saddened today to hear of Eddie Shaw's passing.
Those of you that attend the festival every year know he played multiple times not for just always putting on a great show that the audience loved, but he was also a friend to us. Condolences to his family. May he rest in peace. |
A HUGE THANK YOU to EVERYONE who helped make the festival a smashing success!! We could not have asked for a better weekend!
We'll see you next year. |
