Street Party

Saturday Street Party

The main street.
A whole lot of soul.

The Street Party takes over Hampton Street — Bridgetown’s heritage-lined main street — spilling into a section of Steere Street for a full day of music and mayhem. With street stages and entertainers throughout the precinct, the good times roll from start to finish.

It’s an all-ages celebration that brings weekend festival-goers together with visitors popping in for the day. Wander, discover something new and enjoy the unmistakable atmosphere of Blues at Bridgetown.

Still have a question? Our Street Party team can help.

The Street Party includes a road closure through the town centre, with traffic re-routed around the precinct. No cars can be parked or driven through the closed area during the day, and cars left on the street on Saturday morning will be towed.

Parking is very limited. Walk into town if you can; otherwise, park on the outskirts and walk in to enjoy the day.

Tent City, the only accommodation run by Blues at Bridgetown, is within walking distance of town. If you are staying elsewhere, please contact your accommodation provider for transport information. The festival does not manage buses run by other providers.

Disability parking is managed by the Shire. There is no dedicated disability parking inside the road closure area on Saturday. For questions about attending the Street Party, contact streetparty@bluesatbridgetown.com.au.
