Winner will receive a pair of VIP passes for Friday & Saturday, and the runner-up will receive a pair of VIP passes for their choice of Friday or Saturday. We would like an emphasis on earliest festivals, so preference will be given to photos from 1992 and the earliest festivals in honor of the NYS Blues Festival’s 25th Anniversary.

All entries must be submitted to photos@nysbluesfest.com (use “photo contest” for the subject line and include photographer’s name, performer’s name, and date of photo). There is no limit on the number of entries you can submit. A Slideshow of entries will be shown at the Blues Archives tent during the 25th Anniversary New York State Blues Festival on July 7 & 8, 2017 in Syracuse, NY.

We look forward to viewing your entries!
