Downtown Lebanon closes its historic streets for a free evening of live blues bands, organized by the local Optimist Club. The bill typically runs to several bands, paired with a classic car show and a short running race on the nearby bike trail. Nearby shops mark the same weekend with discount sales. The festival always lands on the first Saturday of August, starting the Friday night before.
