Format

The first part of the Guide (after table of contents, Page 1 and 3 of advertising) is the Featured Festival Section. The Festivals are in date order for the convenience of fans planning their vacations. The Festivals are also in alpha order on the index page so they are easy to find.

In the back of the Guide are listings of festivals around the world stating who, what, when and where and a contact web address and/or hotline. Our blues festival listings are the most accurate you can find anywhere.

The Guide is printed on 325#-70 bright, white, recycled newsprint. Newsprint will ensure that advertising is affordable for promoters and other potential advertisers. Plus it is better for the earth.

The covers are 70-lb. coated, glossy stock and are sold at a premium.

The size is standard 8.5 X 11 magazine format. The pages are stitched in.
