Rollin’ On the River Blues Festival This Weekend in Keokuk

There will be great Blues music on the Riverfront in Keokuk this Friday and Saturday as the 28th Annual Rollin' On the River Bluesfest will be held. This two-night event at Keokuk's Victory Park will feature 7 outstanding acts with "Fast Forward" kicking things off at 6 Friday night and "The Nighthawks" wrapping things up Saturday night. Tickets are $15 each night or $25 for a weekend pass and are available at the gate each night. Bring your lawn chairs and blankets and enjoy two great nights of music on the Keokuk Riverfront.

If you bring a lightly used band instrument for donation to the Instrument Lending Program, you will get a free weekend pass.  They will also be collecting non-perishable food items during the festival to help those in need in the Keokuk area as well.
