Get your tickets before price goes up!


Tickets for Magnolia Fest, (Oct. 18-21) with Bonnie Raitt, Emmylou Harris, JJ Grey and Mofro, Jimmy Herring Band, Donna the Buffalo and the Mickey Hart Band among many others playing this year, are $150 now. On Aug. 19, the price increases to $165.

Magnolia Fest happens at the beautiful at Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park in Live Oak, Fl. It is a great time of year to camp. Magfest is very family friendly and there are after-hours picking circles everywhere.

And don't forget that Aug. 17- 18 is the Suwannee Valley Flood Jam at Spirit of the Suwannee. So many people lost all their belongings during Tropical Storm Debby, and this is a benefit for them. Water was waist-high in downtown  Live Oak, and higher in other places. Peter Rowan and Donna the Buffalo are coming to our steamy region to headline this gig.

100% of ticket sales will go to flood victims. 2-Day Tickets are $45 in advance, $65 at the gate and include primitive camping.

Day tickets cost $20 per day and are available only at the gate. Day tickets don't include primitive camping.

You can see the schedule here.  There's also an online auction to raise funds, and the organizers are asking folks to bring school supplies to donate to kids in the area.
