Now headed into it’s 20th anniversary, the Suwannee Springfest has become a staple for bluegrass, folk, americana and rock festival fans. This little gem takes place every spring down in Live Oak, Florida at the Spirit Of Suwannee Music Park. This venue is no stranger to music as it hosts some of the most popular festivals in the area with the likes of Aura Music and Arts Festival, Suwanne Hulaween, Wanee Music Festival, Suwannee River Of Lights and more. So needless to say, this is a definite hot spot for music lovers of all types.
Suwannee Springfest is in it’s own little niche as it presents some of the country’s best artists in the circle of bluegrass, folk, americana and rock. Recently announced, Brandi Carlile, Railroad Earth, Horseshoes and Hand Grenades, Habanero Honeys, The Applebutter Express, Steve Pruett, and Canary in the Coalmine will join previously released artists John Prine, Donna The Buffalo, Nicki Bluhm and The Gramblers, The Infamous Stringdusters and a whole heap more.
Located smack dab in the middle of Jacksonville and Tallahassee, The Spirit Of Suwannee Music Park is a convenient location to fly into or take an adventurous road trip. Camping is the preferred choice of stay for most festival goers who make the trek to the area, but have no fear if you are looking to stay on a bed. A list of nearby hotels are available via the festival website. Tickets are on sale now so scoop one up!
