Fancy a trip to the Mississippi Delta, Chicago or New Orleans?
Save yourself the airfare and visit the Marchwood Blues Picnic instead.
Set against the backdrop of the gorgeous Bay of Plenty scenery, this is one of the best true blues events in the country.
Hosted outdoors with fabulous views down to the harbour on a 22 acre organic avocado orchard it’s blues heaven for music connoisseurs.
Patrons can bring their own food and drink or, if you would rather, you can buy it on site at friendly prices.
As always the musicians are first class and this year the line up consists of:
Brilleaux, Dr G with Guitarist Mike Kirk, The Flaming Mudcats, Grant Haua Trio, Jan Preston, Manalishi and Max MacDonald.
Both performers and audience love the relaxed atmosphere as much as the great music.
Marchwood Blues Picnic tickets are only $35 pre concert or $40 gate sales.
You'll go a long way to beat that, so come along and join us on the green for the blues!
Tickets are available from Gambinos Fine Wines (45 Grey Street, Tauranga) or Ticket Direct, or by contacting Peter Archer or Carol Murphy (316 Youngson Road, Omokoroa, Tauranga) by phone on (07) 548 2283 or via email at info@bluespicnic.com.
All pre-purchased tickets go into a draw to win a weekend for two at Marchwood Cottage.
For those who would like to pitch a tent or bring a camper, camp sites are available but limited so it would be advisable to book, and you can do so by contacting either Peter or Carol.
