The Black Mountain Blues Festival returns Sept. 26-28 with three days of live music, educational workshops, and family-friendly events in downtown Black Mountain, NC, just east of Asheville.

From intimate venues to outdoor stages, 50% of net proceeds from all ticket sales go directly to funding ongoing Helene relief.

The weekend culminates with Sunday’s “Celebration of Resiliency” in Black Mountain Town Square, featuring special live performances honoring the community’s spirit, strength, and shared love of blues.
