The festival is hosted every July[2] on the farmland owned by the Briggs family. Briggs Farm offers concertgoers a weekend of blues, camping, southern-style barbequed food, and an informal atmosphere. In 2014, more than 6,000 people attended the festival.[3] HistoryThe Briggs Farm Blues Festival was initiated in 1998 by Richard Briggs on a farm which had been in his family since 1768.[4] After working as a TV producer later in life, Richard decided to use his skills to produce a blues festival.[5] Since then the festival has grown and expanded each year, and draws attendees from all over the United States and around the world gathering to hear Delta-style blues.[6] In 2015 the festival presented mainly blues-rock on the main stage. The Back Porch stage presented a mix of local, regional and national blues musicians.[4][7] CampingMany attendees at the Briggs Farm Blues Festival stay in the campground which is set up near the main stage, at the edge of cornfields, or in a wooded area. The campground accommodates RVs, trailers, and tents. Camping allows people to stay throughout the weekend and to meet other blues music enthusiasts.[8] Program
