Big Muddy Blues Festival

A rich historical celebration of soulful delta blues echoing down the cobblestone streets of Laclede's Landing.

Expect a jazz lineup with a laid back, city, and family friendly feel. No camping.

Families. Great first festival.

Heads up before you go: uneven cobblestone path.

Primary genre is Jazz, with Multi-Genre in the mix. Lineups change every year, so treat Jazz, Multi-Genreas the festival's enduring sound rather than a promise about any single artist.

Held in St. Louis, Missouri (Midwest region). No camping and hotel-based stays work well. Book lodging early for popular weekends and confirm details on the official site.

We rate this 5/5 for beginners - "Book it this weekend". Great first festival.
