W.C. Handy Music Festival

Handy Fest is very well organized, the booklet tells you everything you need to know. And there are usually surprise appearances of performers which is always fun. The staff is supurb, they take pride is setting up on a timely basis. It amazes me how few locals show support, but the out of towners never fail to come out and have a good time. I like how the music is the driving force, not personalities or gimmicks. It's a phenomenal festival!!

This event could be better. But everyone is trying to get rich. Instead of celebrating History.

It amazes me that more locals do not attend this Festival but it's my favorite time of the year. Most all the music is free

The festival is great, the staff running things has had a spotty past. I hear they have new blood and are turning things around.

Always a great selection of live, local music. Typically the last week of July.

Loved it

awesome fun!

Awesome experience
