2026 Blues Cruise Featuring Jony James Band

Join the Western New York Blues Society for one of the highlights of the summer season: an unforgettable afternoon of live blues music aboard the Miss Buffalo on beautiful Lake Erie.

Set sail from Buffalo Harbor Cruises on Saturday, August 16 from 4&7pm for an afternoon of music, lake views, good company, and summer atmosphere featuring live music from the incredible Jony James Band.

Whether you’re a longtime blues fan, looking for a unique summer experience, or searching for the best date ever, the Blues Cruise offers the perfect mix of live music, sunset scenery, and laid-back lakeside energy.

Your ticket includes:

A three-hour cruise aboard the Miss Buffalo

Live blues music by The Jony James Band

Snacks and pizza

Cash bar available onboard

Boat launches at 4 pm

Please arrive at the terminal 30 minutes before launch

The Blues Cruise sells out every year, so we strongly recommend getting your tickets early.

Come spend a summer evening on the water with the WNY Blues Society and experience the blues the Buffalo way: live, loud, and lakeside.
