The Pittsburgh Blues Festival is a music festival featuring blues musicians in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.[1] It is one of the region's "marquee annual concerts."[2] The inaugural event took place at the Riverplex at Sandcastle Waterpark,[3] and since then has been held at Hartwood Acres Park and at the Iron City Brewing Company factory.[4] Proceeds from the event benefit charity.[5] The Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank credits the festival as its largest annual event.[3]

Previous acts

Many musicians have previously performed at the Pittsburgh Blues Festival: Koko Taylor, Taj Mahal, John Mayall, Gatemouth Brown, Devon Allman, Bernard Allison, Guy Davis, and

Robert Cray.[3]

Kidzone

The kidzone is a fairly new attraction of the Pittsburgh Blues Festival. Thanks to a few of the event's many sponsors, the Kidzone tent at the festival accommodates a wide range of children activities including story-telling, face painting, musical presentations, and crafts. The kidzone also provides healthy snacks.[3]
