What a weekend.
As the 2026 Broad Street Blues and BBQ Festival comes to a close, we want to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped make this year such an incredible success.
To the amazing artists who filled Central Park with unforgettable music, to Sounds Cool Live Audio and the stage crew who kept everything sounding and looking great, to our dedicated volunteers, our outstanding food and craft vendors, and most importantly, to the incredible audience who came out to show love for the blues, BBQ, and the Griffith community — thank you.
This year brought record-breaking crowds, zero incidents, and countless new memories. As always, we are especially thankful for our police, fire, and VEST members for helping ensure everyone stayed safe throughout the festival.
The blues were strong, the BBQ was hot, and the community spirit was even stronger. Every year, this festival reminds us why Griffith is such a special place.
You may have to wait another year for the next Griffith Broad Street Blues and BBQ Festival, but when it’s summer in Griffith, there’s always another festival right around the corner. Don’t forget, Griffith’s Country Music Tribute Festival is up next in Central Park from June 26 through June 28, and Rock ’N’ Rail returns to Downtown Griffith Labor Day weekend.
Please share some of your favorite moments, photos, and videos from this year’s festival in the comments. We would love to relive the memories with you.
Until next year — thank you for making the 2026 Broad Street Blues and BBQ Festival one to remember.
