The best night of @HandyBlues every year - Sat. night! Proud to welcome 1000s of music fans from all over the country to the Henderson riverfront. It’s the best free blues fest in the nation. Great things are happening here! Let’s keep the momentum going! https://t.co/KEMwH1a0iI
We have music and a wide variety of food vendors going from Noon until 10:30 tonight. The worst of the heat has moved out, so the #handybluesfest is the perfect spot for lunch and dinner today!
