Where to stay

The Basin – HOST

Stay in the center of it all at the Basin Park Hotel during Blues Party weekend and turn a great trip into a fully immersive experience—this is more than a room, it’s your all-access pass to the energy of the festival, and by booking the 3-Night Host Hotel Package at the Basin Park Hotel, where your room, tickets, VIP access, and location all come together you create the ultimate festival experience; with only 20 rooms left at the host hotel, this is clearly the smartest and most immersive way to do the weekend:
