Taking place on Wednesday, October 4th, Warm-up Wednesday is the King Biscuit Blues Festival’s best-kept secret… a hidden gem that serves as a reward for our most loyal fans who arrive the day before the festival fully ramps up. Enjoy a quieter, more laid-back King Biscuit Blues Festival scene where nearly everything is free. The savory smells of all the festival food vendors will be there to greet you from lunchtime (12:00pm) onward.
