DBF Benefit Concert

Since its conception, the Delta Blues Festival has provided the residents of Antioch and the surrounding communities a great day of family entertainment downtown at Waldie Plaza. All of this has been done for FREE - due to the generous support of Corporate & Local Sponsors, and hard work of the volunteers. Festival organizers are determined to continue the tradition of the DBF and to keep it free to the public.
In 2010, the festival realized that it needed a creative way to raise money for the fall event, so El Campanil Theatre stepped up to the plate and presented the first Delta Blues Benefit Concert.  This concert is an indoor, reserved-seat event.  100% of the profits were put toward the fall festival.  It has had great acceptance and great attendance. Since then, many of you have asked for more and we’ve made it an annual event.

This has proven to be a show that should NOT TO BE MISSED! Just ask those who have attended the past shows. The encore is worth the price of admission alone!

The DBF Benefit Concert takes place in El Campanil Theatre and is a three-hour event.  Theater-goers are treated to an amazing night of blues, with a community-focused vibe.

A DIFFERENT FESTIVAL...
​

The Delta Blues Festival was created by David Williamson.  The intention was to offer an alcohol-free festival with live music for  families to have their children in attendance. Something different.

David rallied together 3 local blues bands together and put on the very first Delta Blues Festival on October 23, 1999. For 19 years, every mid-September, we produced an outdoor festival for the community.  The Delta Blues Festival offered food, crafts, and amazing live blues music to the community.
The outdoor festival has transitioned to an indoor festival, with much more exciting results.  Now called, the DBF Benefit Concert, it will provide the community a chance to experience international and local talent perform a 3-hour concert with the proceeds benefiting music and students in the community.
