The Paxico Blues Fest unites world class music and small town culture to create a one of a kind community. 

Since 2004, thousands of people come together every year to experience big time blues in a small town setting.

Our Fest is free, open to one and all. 

Live Music. Local Eats. Antiques. Dancing. Jubilation.

The Paxico Blues Fest unites world class music and small town culture in an effort to sustain and support arts and culture in Wabaunsee County. Thanks to generous sponsorships and contributions, our fest is free and open to all. In addition to a joyous day of music and culture, contributions pay musicians a living wage, generate youth scholarships, purchase musical instruments, plant trees, build parks, and many other community projects that add to rural quality of life. 

People come to Paxico to discover. Whether it’s new music, antique treasures, or a community ready to celebrate, they’ll find it all here.
