BBQ, Brews & Blues is returning for its ninth year in West Palm Beach’s Historic Northwest. Join the West Palm Beach Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) at Heart & Soul Park, 825 North Rosemary Avenue, on Saturday, June 29, 2024, from 4 to 9 p.m., for an evening filled with live music, delicious food, craft beer, thrilling competitions, and more. This event is also a great opportunity for the community to learn about the latest CRA projects underway in the Historic Northwest. Admission is FREE and open to the public.
The family-friendly event will include delicious barbecue, soul food, and craft beers (for those 21+ and older) along with a variety of meals and drinks for purchase from local vendors. The event will also offer fun activities for children, including engaging workshops, and a pop-up skating rink, ensuring there’s something for everyone to enjoy. We encourage guests to arrive early and take advantage of summertime barbecue specialties such as pulled pork, boiled peanuts, chicken, ribs, and more.
Music lovers are in for a treat at this year’s festival with Shenetria Moore as the M.C., guiding an evening of entertainment with a variety of local bands, including The Blues Therapy and Jazz Band, DJ Sho-Nuff, Ladi T & The SuperStar Players, and Dr. J & Company as the event headliner. These rock bands have been captivating audiences in South Florida for over three decades and will bring their soulful sounds to the stage.
“We are thrilled to host the BBQ, Brews & Blues Festival in the Historic Northwest, showcasing the community’s vibrant spirit and energy. This event is not only a fantastic way to enjoy great food, music, and entertainment, but also an opportunity to spotlight the ongoing projects that are transforming this amazing neighborhood.” said Christopher Roog, Executive Director of the CRA.
Throughout the event, the CRA will showcase various local projects that are currently in development in the Historic Northwest. These initiatives offer local businesses and residents several opportunities to invest in this thriving and vibrant neighborhood.
