Bendigo Blues & Roots Music Festival
Four days, 50 venues, 150 acts.
Overview
On the first weekend in November, more than 150 music acts are set to take over Bendigo, pouring into town for the annual Blues & Roots Music Festival. Whether your thing is getting amongst it at a huge, outdoor concert or kicking back to mellow tunes in a small bar, there'll be something on the program to make your ears prick up.
At the festival's heart is a free, all-day, all-ages shindig in Rosalind Park featuring more than a dozen acts. Outside of that, you'll have more than 50 venues to choose from — including a moving one, the Bendigo Blues Tram. This engaging experience sees some of the festival's cracking blues artists take over a historic city tram, filling it with music as it rolls through the city from the Central Deborah Goldmine to the Joss House and back.
Look out, too, for laneway parties, workshops, pop-ups, buskers and loads more. The majority of the festival is free, but you can also pick up an Easy Rider Pass for $99 that'll guarantee you stellar seats at some of the more popular events.
