NESCOPECK, Pa. Driving along Route 93 toward Berwick, you can t help but notice the billboard advertising the 24th annual Briggs Farm Blues Festival near Nescopeck.
Last year was the first time in the festival s history that the event had to be canceled because of the coronavirus. We re excited to get back into doing it and to work on it, and we took some time off, and it wasn t really good for us to stop thinking about it and working on it. And I think our audience is going to feel the same way when they finally get a chance, and they have this to look forward to in July, said Dylan Briggs, one of the festival organizers.
