Tucson Folk Festival

El Presidio Park, Tucson
520/792-6481

The Tucson Kitchen Musicians, a longtime group of folkies and other musical types in Tucson [1], put on the excellent Tucson Folk Festival showcasing local and regional folk and blues music every year in downtown El Presidio Park.

It’s a chance to discover all the talented singer-songwriters working in the folk, acoustic, and roots traditions in the Old Pueblo, and much of the festival is usually broadcast on KXCI, Tucson’s community radio station.

There are always a few food booths set up, and the whole event is popular and crowded with families and kids.
