Gulfport boasts an impressive local music scene, with break-out artists spanning all genres.

Live music is planned for the entire festival, so no matter what time you show up, the stage will be rocking.

Don’t miss Unfazed Show & Band, Starz Band, and Remedy of the local acts signed up.

FOOD TRUCK YUMMIES‍

Any foodie will tell you that food trucks are the best way to discover what's new and happening with a city's food scene. Truck owners are known for trying new things out. Those that hit it big often wind up with their successful restaurants.

Food trucks run the gamut from regular burgers and hot dogs to exotic gourmet and ethnic offerings.

The festival focuses on the Gulf Coast's best options, with a spotlight on coastal favorites. Over 20 trucks are scheduled to be there, so there's sure to be something for every palette.

FUN FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY‍

Beyond the music and food, the fest is intended to be fun for your entire clan. There will be bouncy houses, a hula hoop contest, and face painting booths.

And of course, the venue at Jones Park is lovely whether a festival is happening or not. Kids and kids-at-heart will enjoy the Splash Pad with its dancing, interactive fountains. What a perfect way to cool off on a hot July afternoon!

The views from the park are some of the best in the city, too. It's situated right on the waterfront, overlooking the harbor and city marina.
