    COMMUNITY LIAISON

A Week of Music, Connection & Celebration

Immerse yourself in five days and five nights of shared tables and legendary Canadian Blues. The guitars hum, the stories fly, and the jams roll late.

With a special guest performance opening the week on Satuday May 2nd, and closing with our Blues Odyssey in Campbell River, we have something for blues lovers and artists alike.

Home of the Hornby Island Blues Society

The Hornby Island Blues Society is dedicated to celebrating and preserving the rich tradition of blues music on beautiful Hornby Island, British Columbia.

Formed by a passionate community of musicians, volunteers, and music lovers, the Society fosters appreciation for the blues through educational workshops and live performances.

Our mandate is to employ Canadian artists to teach, perform, and share their passion for the blues with our community.

With the help of our dedicated volunteers, we nurture new talent and bring people together in the spirit of soulful expression, community connection, and the timeless power of the blues.
