The 28th annual Big Bull Falls Blues Fest, presented by Budweiser, marked its inauguration with a bang on August 16, 2019, Friday. The fest is being held at Wausau, Wisconsin.
The Big Bull Falls Blues Fest is lined up with a variety of food stops and the commemorative shirts being sold by the organisers. The fest is going to cover two days, i.e., August 16 and August 17, respectively. A total of 10 performances will be staged covering the two days event.
Madison Nowak, the executive director for Wausau Events, quoted that several known faces who visited the fest earlier too are being noticed. According to Madison, the things that bring people back to the same spot is a “sense of community”. Several people come in groups of families and friends, at the onset of the event to see the different lineups set every year. Not just one, but many reasons, thus adds up to the purpose for visiting the Big Bull Falls Blues Fest year after year. The director further adds, “people love to be here”.
