The Blues Brothers (Film Screening)

MILTON FOLK JAZZ & BLUES FESTIVAL RETURNS! 

The Milton Folk Jazz and Blues Festival is set to return on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd May 2026.

You can help us make the 2026 dream a reality by coming along to our film fundraiser at the Milton Theatre:

Join us for a special screening of The Blues Brothers — the cult classic that defined cool and tore through Chicago with a soundtrack that still shakes the streets. Jake Blues is fresh out of prison. Elwood’s waiting in a battered police cruiser. Together, they’ve got just days to reunite their legendary Rhythm & Blues band and save the Catholic orphanage that raised them — all while dodging cops and country singers in one of the wildest musical comedies ever made.   Whether you’re a lifelong fan or discovering the magic for the first time, this is your chance to relive the chaos, the car chases, and the unforgettable soundtrack that turned a cult classic into a cultural icon.

It’s 106 miles to Chicago. We’ve got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it’s dark… and we’re wearing sunglasses. Hit it.

Feel free to get into the spirit of the 80s and dress up for the occasion too! There will be a best dressed competition—wear your best Blues Brothers - inspired garb to be in the running to win.
