The Kip London Memorial Pittsburgh Blues & Roots Festival
Now in its eighth year, the organizers of the 2025 Pittsburgh Blues & Roots Festival today announce the annual event will be renamed “The Kip London Memorial Pittsburgh Blues & Roots Festival.” This year’s event will light up the summer, July 25–27, at the Pittsburgh Shrine Center Pavilion, Cheswick, PA.
This is the first time the festival will be named in honor of a performer, who contributed his time and talent to promoting and growing the regional and national blues scene.
Through the generous support of The Kip London Memorial Foundation, the festival will recognize the life and legacy of the beloved Western Pennsylvania bluesman and will feature the official release of his highly anticipated posthumous album, The Last Dance.
This three-day celebration of music, community, and inspiration will bring some of the finest local, regional, and national blues and roots performers to the stage to support Band Together Pittsburgh, a nonprofit enriching the lives of individuals on the autism spectrum through music, and the Autism Society of Pittsburgh.
