The Blues Festival kicks off on Friday night at 5:00 PM in City Park, downtown Clear Lake. Eat a helping (or two!) of barbecue and enjoy some soul-revivin’ blues.

The time trial is a race against the clock and begins at 7:30 AM near Lions Field on North 8^th Street (also known as Grouse Ave. or CR S28). It will be an out-and-back course of about 7 miles.

At 11:00 AM, the BBQ starts heating up, and the blues music continues into the evening.  All eyes turn to the BBBQ criterium event at 11:00 AM for fast bike race action at City Park.

The Brews on the Beach Craft Beer Fest begins at 12:00 and runs through 4:00.

The Blues kicks back up at 8:30 p.m. on Saturday night.
