The 4th Annual Bay Area Blues Festival
We are excited to announce the merger of two great Festivals, the Downtown Martinez Italian Street Painting Festival and San Francisco’s Polk Street Blues Festival.
For many years each of these long standing free events have attracted thousands of attendees to the communities where they have been held. Both have provided great forms of entertainment to the attendees and it made perfect sense for Steven Restivo Event Services, LLC and Main Street Martinez Downtown Organization to partner and bring both forms together into one great new Festival.
The new Festival is the Bay Area Blues Festival and will be held in Historic Downtown Martinez, CA on Saturday and Sunday, September 27 & 28, 2014, from 10 am to 6 pm.
The event will feature amazing Blues music on two stages, Arts and Crafts Exhibitors, Gourmet Food booths, local Restaurants, community booths, hands on kids activities and rides, a Farmers Market, bistro style seating areas, craft beer and fine wines, and of course street painting artist that will create spectacular chalk art with a Blues theme and the traditional Italian theme. There will also be an area within the chalk art section for kids to create their design and have some creative fun.
If people are looking to escape the crowded big city and want to enjoy a warm, friendly neighborhood atmosphere Historic Downtown Martinez is the place.
