May is Blues Month in Chicago, and June 6th through 9th are the dates of the largest free blues festival in the world, taking place at Millenium Park and Grant Park. The events of the fest are estimated to draw more than 500,000 blues fans, all of whom are happy to visit local establishments to refuel after long hours of partying to the sounds of blues greats like Otis Clay, Uvee Hayes, James Cotton, Eddie Floyd, Sir Mack Rice, and more. This great festival gives your business the opportunity to produce targeted marketing materials that synch up with the festivities, and you don’t have to stand in the crowds and distribute flyers to reach your audience (although it wouldn’t hurt). In fact, many people who attend the Chicago Blues Festival are actually locals, and by distributing postcards to them, featuring can’t-be-beat offers during the days of the festival, you can be sure to drive your neighbors right through the doors of your establishment – maybe even for the first time.
The three-day festival, performers will take to five different stages, including the Mississippi Juke Joint stage, The Blues Kids Foundation Tent, and the Windy City Blues Society Stage. Many events are geared toward children, including drum sessions, guitar jams, and video screenings, making the festival a family-friendly occasion that is sure to draw many local residents out of their homes. Print postcards that cater to families and individuals who will be eager to unwind during this almost-summertime party, and you will be sure to draw in some local traffic.
