Blue Mountains Music Festival

There is nothing quite like the "Mysticssippi" blues of Harry Manx, and seeing him team up with the incredible Clayton Doley was easily a highlight of the weekend! 🎸🎹
For those who missed it (or just want to relive the moment), here is a look at their soul-stirring performance from the Big Top on Sunday at the Blue Mountains Music Festival 2026.
Between Harry’s 20-string Mohan Veena and Clayton’s masterclass on the keys, the energy in the tent was absolute lightning. This is what festival memories are made of. 🏔️🎶

John made three very bold claims, and honestly we can't argue with any of them — fans like him who've been with us for years are our greatest treasure:

"The Blues Workshop with Harry Manx, Dom Turner, Dave Hole and Hat Fitz was, in the opinion of everyone around me, the best thing we'd ever heard at a BMMF. It didn't rain. Unbelievable. Can we have Steve Poltz every year?"

We're taking notes, John. Thank you for your loyalty and your brilliant feedback. See you 12, 13, 14th March 2027! 🎶

Paula nearly didn't make it — and we are so grateful she did:
"Nearly cancelled - but I've left with my heart full."

Jim, one of our incredible volunteers, brought us to tears with this one — we are endlessly grateful for his dedication:

"Steve Poltz brought tears to my eyes with his final song, getting us to join with him in singing the chorus of Bob Dylan's Forever Young as he surrendered himself with children down from the stage."

Thank you for giving your time AND your heart, Jim. Volunteers like you are the soul of this festival. See you 12, 13, 14th March 2027! 🎶

Geraldine captured a perfect family moment, and it's fans like her that remind us this festival is for everyone:

"Seeing the joy in my eldest kiddo's face (10) when he heard The Spooky Men singing they could grow beards if they wanted to ☺️ I got the matching action all afternoon!"

Moments like this are why we keep going. Thank you for bringing your beautiful family, Geraldine. See you 12, 13, 14th March 2027! 🎶

This comment from Rachel is what we always hope for:

“This was our first Blue Mountains festival and we came last minute. We loved it and have planned to come back next year and stay close by. Great music, fantastic venue and just such a lovely vibe.”

Time to start showing off some of the awesome photography from our festival photographers.

We’re genuinely grateful for you. Another festival done — and somehow it still feels a bit unreal. What a weekend. Thanks for coming out, supporting live music, and bringing such good energy to every room, stage, and late-night singalong.

Tell us your highlights in the comments — the set that floored you, the song you can’t stop humming, the moment you’ll remember.

SEE YOU NEXT YEAR.
