Due to COVID-19, the TD Kitchener Blues Festival scheduled for August 2020 has been cancelled.
The Youth Legacy Challenge provides an opportunity for young blues musicians to develop and showcase their talent in a really big way, and we hope to continue in 2021. The winning performers will be offered the chance to perform on the YNC Stage of the Kitchener Blues Festival in 2021 and in addition have a song recorded in a studio with a producer arranged by Kitchener Blues Community, Inc.
