Under the title BluesBaltica are three festivals and numerous other blues activities:
Blues Festival Eutin
Exhibition & Concerts
German Blues Challenge
Hamburg Blues Nights
Blues@School
German Blues Awards
Responsible is the non-profit association Baltic Blues e.V. in Eutin.
Here’s the bad news:
Herewith the Baltic Blues e.V. officially cancels the BluesBaltica/Bluesfest Eutin, according to the current legal situation.
Here is the good news:
The Baltic Blues e.V. will try to extend the BluesBaltica/Blues Challenge in Eutin, which was planned for 11th – 13th September 2020 anyway, by one day (new: 10th – 13th September 2020). At the same time, major international blues acts from North America and the countries around the Baltic Sea are to be invited, as is customary at the Bluesfest Eutin.
Thus a “Two in One” is to be created. First commitments on the part of some subsidy providers (Land SH, Stadt Eutin, Sparkasse Holstein, Eutin GmbH) lead to cautious optimism that this could succeed. The prerequisite, however, is the city’s promise to make the land available for this purpose. It is important to note that this is NOT a relocation of the Bluesfest, but rather a Blues Challenge extended by an international festival!
Further information will be available as soon as possible.
