Illinois people still LOVE the Blues Brothers!

And now you can celebrate that love at the all-new Blues Brothers Con! Appropriately, the event will take place right where the 1980 film began: at Old Joliet Prison.

From August 19th – 20th, you’ll be able to see live blues and gospel performances including a 90-minute headliner featuring Dan Aykroyd as Elwood Blues and Jim Belushi as Brother Zee.

There will also be food, activities, photo-ops with the Bluesmobile, and more!

Tickets for the con start at $60 ($20 for children and students). You can get yours here.
