It's that time of the year again as our Front Porch Stage comes to life with some of the best Blues from around the world. Held in conjunction with the historic King Biscuit Blues Festival every year, the Front Porch offers a unique venue where the audience can also be part of the show.

The 2025 Front Porch Blues Bash begins at noon on Friday, October 10, at the Miller Annex located at 223 Cherry Street in downtown Helena-West Helena, Arkansas. Unlike past years, this will be followed by the Front Porch Blues Jam from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. As always, this fun event will be hosted by Brotha Ric Patton. Musicians, bring your instruments and everyone prepare for a good time.

Doors will re-open back at the Miller on Saturday, October 11, for the second day of our 2025 Front Porch Blues Bash. Entertainment will begin at 1 p.m. and last until 6 p.m.

The Front Porch is free and open to the public. Make plans be patient, because the Miller is always crowded and jumping with fun. Schedule is subject to change without notice.
