In last week’s e-news there was a typo on the date for VBF 2024. The correct day/date is Saturday, July 27, 2024. We apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
While we have your attention, we thought it might be useful look ahead to 2025 and 2026 as well. Beginning in 2010, we have presented a multi-day festival every three years. That would argue for us to have the next multi-day festival in 2025. However, since 2026 will be the 20th anniversary of Vintage Band Festival, the board decided earlier this fall to wait until 2026 to stage the next multi-day festival. 2026 is also the United States Semiquincentennial (we had to look that one up!); 250 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence. We thought that might make for some extra-special programming.
That means we’ll have three one-day events in a row (2023, 2024 and 2025). As mentioned earlier, the date for 2024 will be July 27. The date for 2025 will be Saturday, August 2. In 2026 Vintage Band Festival will take place July 30 – August 2.
