Blythe bluegrass festival

Is anyone going in January 2019 to this festival? Good time? Worth drive from Palm springs?
  • There's a passport america park on the river there. I think it's called hidden beaches. Anyone been there? Spots available--I haven't checked yet.
  • We went last year and had a good time. Met up with friends that had been there before. We booked ahead to get a spot inside the grounds. Bluegrass music is not everyone’s taste but the performers were very good. Dry camping there so be prepared.
  • Blythe is a pretty good place to launch a canoe and paddle to Yuma.
  • Why would George, John, Paul, and Ringo be at a bluegrass festival anyway? Unless they were there to learn something :).

    Was but couldnt fine a spot in any of the RV parks
  • If you are a BlueGrass fan.Been a few years,2003 2006 and last time 2011.Didn,t go to see Blythe.Was going back in. 2012 but life (not wife didn’t,have one)had other plans.would go agian if possible.My 2 cents.The next Saturday I went to Yuma for a one day show
  • Blythe is a dump, I can't picture anything worthwhile happening there. This festival would be a first.
  • I am not sure I would spend a day in Blythe if George and John were brought back to life and the Beatles reunited for one show only.
