WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU!
| SYDNEY BLUES & ROOTS FESTIVAL 2011 |
THE SYDNEY BLUES & ROOTS FESTIVAL will be held in Windsor on 28, 29 & 30 October 2011. Three local and long-established Hawkesbury businessmen are promoting the festival. AS WELL AS CELEBRATING the promoters' love of Australian rhythm and blues music, the festival is also an opportunity to showcase the historic Windsor district, gain increased tourism, and develop THE FESTIVAL WILL BE HELD in October to take advantage of spring weather conditions and so will avoid clashes with other festivals and local events. IT IS ACKNOWLEDGED that there has been a proliferation of music festivals around Australia in recent years. Interestingly, though, all the blues festivals in NSW are held in country and coastal areas — Byron Bay, Batemans Bay, Goulburn, Thredbo, and Wagga Wagga. Sydney does not have a comparable blues festival. Windsor is an ideal location for such a festival because of its accessibility, history, dining and varied accommodation facilities, unique village-like atmosphere and relaxed ambience. THE FESTIVAL FORMAT is similar to that of other successful festivals such as Goulburn, and Broadbeach, where events are held in a variety of venues throughout the central business precinct, including hotels, restaurants, cafés and outdoor venues including the Hawkesbury Paddlewheeler. All venues are within easy walking distance to each other. THE FESTIVAL is promoted as a safe and friendly event, transcending barriers of age, gender and culture, presented in intimate performance spaces. THE VERY BEST of established and emerging blues and roots acts from around Australia, presenting diverse styles of music, will be showcased. Local musicians and other young performers are encouraged and given particular attention. Additional activities will include market stalls, buskers, jam sessions, workshops and youth groups. ESTIMATING accurate attendance figures at this early stage is difficult, BUT based on attendances at the 2009 and 2010 festivals, it is expected that between 2,000 and 3,000 patrons each day will attend the festival. NOW INTO ITS THIRD YEAR the festival has enjoyed steady growth, with increased attendances, additional venues, both electronic and print media exposure along with an increase in corporate sponsorship. The promoters are now enthusiastically looking forward to the Sydney Blues & Roots Festival becoming one of the premier events on the music calendar. WE LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH YOU.
