The 18th Annual Motor City Blues Festival
About this event
The 'Blues Is Alright Tour' featuring King George, Pokey Bear, Lenny Williams, West Love, Mike Clark Jr., and EJ Jones.
What to Expect
- 1.Arrive early to park and get settled. Doors usually open 60–90 minutes before showtime, so give yourself time to grab a drink and find your seat before the first act.
- 2.Expect a fast-paced night with several short-to-moderate sets rather than one long headliner. The Blues Is Alright Tour features multiple artists like King George, Pokey Bear, Lenny Williams, West Love, Mike Clark Jr., and EJ Jones, so keep an eye on the schedule so you don’t miss your favorites.
- 3.Seating and sound at the Fox Theatre are solid, but blues shows can push the volume; if loud music bothers you, bring ear protection or sit a bit higher for a more comfortable mix.
- 4.Concessions and a bar are typically available inside; if you want a pre-show bite, there are plenty of downtown options around Woodward Ave—plan ahead to avoid lines.
- 5.Parking downtown can be pricey and spots near the venue fill up fast; rideshare or parking a few blocks away is often easier than circling the block for a spot.
