2019 is also the year in which we commemorate the 25th anniversary of the death of Rysiek Riedel, a legend of Polish blues and of our Festival. We are very happy that, after a quarter of a century, we have managed to invite Sebastian Riedel to Bolesławiec and that he will perform in this very place, by the Bóbr River, where Rysiek enchanted our hearts more than a quarter of a century ago. Natalia Sikora needs no introduction. She is a truly extraordinary figure, with a fantastic voice and charisma rivaling that of her beloved Janis Joplin. Accompanied by outstanding musicians, including Dariusz Kozakiewicz, Natalia will evoke the spirit of Mira Kurasińska by the Bóbr River. We believe that by choosing such a repertoire, we will reach both the older audience, who remember the event’s first editions, and young listeners who have not yet had the opportunity to attend any edition of Blues nad Bobrem. We invite everyone, not only blues enthusiasts.
“Outdoor concerts are, above all, a great opportunity to spend a summer evening outdoors, in excellent company and to the sounds of outstanding music. At the festival grounds, visitors will be able to eat, quench their thirst and simply relax. Children will find interesting activities for themselves, including an artistic car-painting event organized together with Toyota-Boshoku, as well as many other attractions,” the organizers add.
The Final Concert of the 28th Edition of the Blues nad Bobrem Festival will take place on July 20 at the MOSiR stadium at 1 Rajska Street. It starts at 5:00 p.m.; admission is free.
