Jax Summer Fest 2024
Duval's ONLY televised multi-event weekend dedicated to local talent, small businesses and entertainment entrepreneurs, and underserved teachers and students is BACK! #Summer #EndofSummer #BacktoSchool #JaxSummerFest

>> Since 2014, Duval Spring Fest has provided a platform for "local" artists, aspiring entertainers and entertainment entrepreneurs, creatives from Jacksonville and surrounding areas, and supporters of all the above-- this year, after celebrating the 11th anniversary of Spring Fest with a rooftop kickoff, Fashion Friday featuring Jax-based designers and models, block party Saturday featuring the annual Mic Madness artist tournament showcase where artists competed for over $2000 in prize giveaways including performances during BET Hip Hop Awards weekend in Atlanta later this fall, and wrapping it all up on Sunday with community service day, JAX SUMMER FEST (Spring Fest's counterpart) will return with the same 3-day format, but with a beachy twist
