Since its inception in 2005, SouthWoodstock has become a
landmark event in Tallahassee. This one-day music and arts festival is held on
the spacious John Paul II Catholic High School campus in Tallahassee, Florida.
Hailed for its near-flawless logistics, peaceful vibe, and
progressive lineup, SouthWoodstock features many of the top artists in the
grassroots rock genre, along with acts in complementary styles such as jazz and
blues. SouthWoodstock’s musical and artistic lineup combines the richness of
roots traditions with the freshness of the cutting edge, merging many styles and
formats into one dynamic experience.
In addition to dozens of memorable performances, the festival
buzzes with round-the-clock attractions and activities including art displays,
children's activities, and a car show. A food court is available with lunch and
snack items at great prices, and a stylish bistro offers soups, salads, and the
famous chocolate fountain. An assortment of fine wines is offered, and cold beer
is available in the beer garden.
The event’s
first annual installment sold out with no traditional advertising—an
unprecedented achievement. And, in 2009, participants called SouthWoodstock “the
most ambitious and successful festival of the year.” The festival continues to
grow exponentially each year. You don’t want to miss this year’s event!
