North Bend Blues Walk is Saturday, Sept. 23

The annual North Bend Blues Walk, hosted by JazzClubsNW, is returning for its fifth year this Saturday, Sept. 23, across many of the downtown North Bend businesses.

The annual Blues Walk event invites blues artists to North Bend for a night of live performances in a variety of venues all centered in the downtown North Bend core.

JazzClubsNW has partnered with 15 businesses, including Wildflower Wine Shop, Birches Habitat, Twede’s Cafe and Georgia’s Bakery, to open their doors and host the artists for the night.

From 6 p.m. to midnight, attendees of the event need just one ticket, to walk around the North Bend streets to see as many of the performances as they like. Tickets are available online and are $25 in advance, $30 on the day of the event. Umpqua Bank will also be selling tickets and Blues Walk merchandise.
