Enjoy Wilmington, Delaware with the Riverfront Blues Festival

by Katina Geralis

The blues are coming back to the Wilmington waterfront! The Riverfront Blues Festival is set to return to Tubman-Garrett Riverfront Park next weekend. 

According to Delaware Today Magazine, the 3-day music festival weekend planned for this August 1 through the 3rd is the "rockin'est weekend of the year!" Rain or shine, the event is held outdoors on two stages and features some of the best blues musicians around. 

In the past, the Riverfront Blues Festival has included free harmonica lessons and free sessions with guitarist Gary Cogdell, as well as a free children's craft tent and refreshing misting tent available in the park to cool attendees during those dog days of summer. This year's event is expected to be just as successful, with the talents of treasured blues musicians Marcia Ball, James Harman and Tommy Castro gracing the Blues Festival's stages. 

Wilmington residents and visitors alike can also expect to find the following musicians on this year's Blues Festival main stage:

Friday, August 1: 
5 PM— Popa Chubby
6:45 PM— Southern Hospitality featuring the Damon Fowler Band & Victor Wainwright and the Wild Roots
8:30 PM— Tommy Castro & the Painkillers
