Mineral Point Blues & Roots Festival takes place over two days and features a variety of talented performers, from solo acts to full bands with horn sections. The main stage is set up on the lawn of the historic Gundry House (Orchard Lawn!) which provides a sunny, park like setting for the performances. 

Aside from the music, the Mineral Point Blues & Roots Festival also offers a range of food and beverage options, including craft beer and wine, as well as local and regional food vendors serving up delicious barbecue, Chicago style dogs, homemade pies, and other classic festival fare. Souvenir pint glasses and other merchandise will be available for purchase. 

One of the highlights, taking place on both nights of the event, is the main headliner performances at 8:45 each night. On Friday, Cash Box Kings will bring the crowds to their feet and on Saturday night Mary Lane No Static Blues Band will close out the event with an another amazing set list.
