Welcome to the official website of  Blues in the Barn, Wilshire's unique Charity Blues Festival.

We are holding a evening of Classic British Blues, with the very best international, national and local bands. Headlining the event will be the legendary Blues Band, featuring Paul Jones, Dave Kelly, Tom McGuinness, Rob Townsend and Gary Fletcher. Supporting acts will be Bristols finest Blues man and harmonica virtuoso Eddie Martin and his band. Also joining us will be Britain's finest young blues guitarist Oli Brown and his band, from Norwich. Local Bath boys No Mean Feat, and Swindons Just Jim and Hip route conclude the line up. For full band details please go and take a look at the bands page.

The event will take place in a barn on a working farm, with all the atmosphere of an outdoor festival, with the added protection of a roof, should the weather turn. If the weather is good, we will leave the side off the barn so you can still have the wind blowing through your hair. The Barn can only accommodate 500 people so tickets are redistricted.

As well as fabulous music, there will be our very own Indian restaurant "The Ratford Spice of Bengal" and a Real Ale Bar.

We look forward to seeing you on the day, meantime make sure you get your tickets early and we will see you for some high voltage blues in August. Gates Open 4pm, so get down early to soak up the atmosphere and get a good spot.
