Waterfront Blues Festival
Portland’s longest-running and most beloved blues celebration returns July 4–5 to the scenic Tom McCall Waterfront Park along the Willamette River.
This iconic festival spans four stages and features 60+ blues, soul, funk, and R&B artists—including headliners like Allen Stone, The Motet, and The Main Squeeze. Expect an unforgettable weekend filled with live music, food trucks, craft brews, family zones, fireworks, and that signature riverfront vibe.
