Weathering a few isolated thunderstorms through the 33rd Annual Burnet Bluebonnet Festival will be worth it to see what is in store for visitors to the 2016 festival now underway.
“Many of times we have had rain, and it never really effected the festival, but we do have contingency plans for the concert and things if need be,” said Kim Winkler, executive director of the Burnet Chamber of Commerce, host of the event.
With over 30,000 attendees in account for the past three years faulty weather has not stopped the large crowd from enjoying the activities.
“Our vendor number is up and our concert number is up so we think this year will be just as great as previous years,” said Winkler.
