Big Local Names On Bluesfest Bill

Big Sugar and I Mother Earth with Edwin are just two of the 27 acts included in this year's Bluesfest Windsor, which now spans four nights, July 14-17.

Event President Rob Petroni says a second stage has been added.

"We added the second stage so that, during the entire, from 3pm and 11pm-1am, there's continuous music," he explains.

It'll be set up opposite the main stage at Windsor's Riverfront Festival Plaza.

Petroni says gates will open at 3pm each day because they're bringing in more food vendors from across Windsor-Essex and Chatham-Kent.

The VIP section has also been scrapped this year, so there will be no area of the plaza that's off limits to anyone holding a ticket.

Tickets are $25 a night, $10 for Sunday. Weekend passes are $75, while three day passes are $50.
