BlueTone Festival

BlueTone Festival BlueTone Festival is an all-new four-day celebration of jazz, blues, funk, and soul in Taunton

BlueTone Festival is a new celebration of jazz, blues, funk and soul, set in the heart of Somerset. Taking place in Taunton, BlueTone brings together outstanding live music, emerging UK talent and established artists for a weekend that’s all about groove, musicianship and connection. From smoky blues riffs and deep jazz cuts to funk-driven rhythms and soul voices that stop you in your tracks, Blue

Tone is curated for people who love real live music. We’re building a festival that feels welcoming, high-quality and delivered at a scale that prioritises audience experience and accessibility – a place where music fans, artists and the local community come together. Expect a carefully programmed lineup, great sound, space to discover new favourites, and an atmosphere that invites you to stay, explore and soak it all in.
