Ticket Prices Cut for Chesapeake Bay Blues Festival
The Chesapeake Bay Blues Festival will again be held at Sandy Point State Park; discounted tickets on sale through Dec. 31.

From Chesapeake Bay Foundation: Chesapeake Bay Events, Inc. is pleased to announce that the Chesapeake Bay Blues Festival will be held on Saturday, May 20th and Sunday May 21st, 2017. The festival, held at Sandy Point State Park in Annapolis, Maryland, is a two day event to raise money for two local charities.
We thought about talking a year off after a very soggy 2016, but we felt that we owed it to the charities and the hardcore fans who braved the rain and mud last year, to return in 2017.
To say thank you to our loyal fans and to celebrate the holiday season, tickets will be reduced between December 15th and December 31st.
