The Vero Beach Blues Festival is a two-day celebration of blues music at the Indian River County Fairgrounds in Vero Beach. This annual event features 10 bands performing live on stage, with professional sound and lighting. The festival offers a wide range of food vendors, along with 100 marketplace vendors showcasing arts, crafts, and local businesses. Guests can enjoy cold drinks at beer and liquor bars, or relax in the Blues Lounge Tent, which offers seating for 650 and a full bar near the stage.
Attendees can bring lawn chairs and blankets to enjoy the music. Keep in mind that coolers, pop-up tents, and large umbrellas are prohibited. Small umbrellas are allowed in designated areas.
