I see that you not only changed the time of Blues n Blues this year but you shaved an hour off of it’s duration. Perhaps the cost of the ticket should be shaved down a tad as well? Why was it shortened. It’s been 5 hours for as long as I can remember! Joe

Hi Joe,
Yes, we did shorten the event this year. We’ve also been working very hard to make sure that your ticket is still worth every penny you pay for it.
We made the tough decision to shorten it because a main reason for the event is to raise money for the community, and we’re challenged by regulation changes and the same tough economy that everybody else is. We felt that by starting later in the day, many people will find time to be productive with their day before the event, yet leave time to unwind afterward. We also hope by starting later in the day, the July Wisconsin heat is a little more tolerable than it has been with the mid-day sun beating on us!
I hope you understand our decision, and choose to attend. It really is shaping up to be a great event. If I wasn’t going to be busy hosting it, I wouldn’t hesitate to buy my own ticket.

Can you post anything ABOUT the event? I have never been to it before and have NO idea what it is or whats going on at it…. There are no descriptions that I can see…

Hi Tara,
If you’ve ever been to the Leach Amphitheater, you know what a beautiful venue it is. If you haven’t, I encourage you to check it out, whether for Brews ‘n Blues, Waterfest, or one of the other great events it hosts.
For Brews ‘n Blues, we use the amphitheater’s stage and bring in musical talent from within the region, along with many varieties of micro-brews from several different breweries across the country. The brewers set up around the main listening area, and people leisurely sample different brews that interest them, live music plahying on stage. The atmosphere is relaxed, yet a lot of fun. Sampling the brews is included with admission, and we have food and water available at a concession stand for modest additional cost.
If you have any more specific questions, please let us know!

Maybe I’m dense, but I can’t find a link to purchase tickets ANYWHERE on this site! Anyone?

At the top of this post, you should see a blue “add to cart” button. We had problems with it not showing up when we first posted it, but as far as I know, it has been working fine. If it’s not working, please call us at 920-385-9231 and we’ll make sure you get tickets at the discounted advanced sales rate.
