Let me start by saying WOW, what a great weekend! I arrived Wanee Music Festival Thursday afternoon to catch Dumpstaphunk. Putting on a great set (as always) and getting everyone's energy up for the weekend. Someone I really enjoyed most (and have never seen before) Phil Lesh. Such a great two sets, both days--out of Phil.

Widespread Panic returning this year for 2 fabulous nights and a rare 2 night Florida performance for Phil Lesh and the Terrapin Family Band make potent headliners for another of our fantastic line-ups and brings a great jamband excitement to what has now become one of the most popular Festivals in the country.  THE 2018 WANEE MUSIC FESTIVAL returns Thursday April 19th through Saturday April 21st to the Spirit of Suwannee Music Park in Live Oak, FL. 

The Bonus Wednesday Wanee concert night April 19th this year will be dedicated to “Remembering Butch Trucks” the long time Allman Brothers drummer who passed away last month.  The Wednesday performance, which is a popular event for Wanee fans, is an extra night of music available to those who have purchased three day tickets to the Wanee Music Festival.  It had featured Butch before and he was slated to be its headliner at the 2017 show.

Widespread Panic, Bob Weir & the Campfire Band (for two nights) and Trey Anastasio Band make a potent headlining triple header for one of our best line-ups ever and brings a great jamband excitement to what has now become one of the most popular Festivals in the country.  THE 2017 WANEE MUSIC FESTIVAL returns Thursday April 20th through Saturday April 22nd to the Spirit of Suwannee Music Park in Live Oak, FL.

Due to an overwhelming response from our Wanee Family, what is shaping up to be the most exciting Wanee Music Festival ever is now announcing its scheduled dates for the 2017 event.  Mark your calendars for Thursday, April 20th through Saturday, April 22nd to enjoy what has grown over the years into one of the biggest and most star-studded Music Festivals around. 

The Wanee Music Festival 2017 will once again be held at the Spirit of Suwannee Music Park in Live Oak, FL.  Early Bird information and performing line-up will be announced soon.

The Les Paul Big Sound Experience is coming to Wanee Music Festival April 14-16 in Spirit of Suwanewee Music Park, Live Oak FL.

Guests can experience all of the entertainment and fun on board Les Paul’s Big Sound Experience mobile tour vehicle – a playground of technology, music, sound and invention for all ages. This marks the 100th Anniversary of Les Paul which is being celebrated across the country with special events, the tour and a host of promotions.

Umphrey’s McGee late-night set at Wanee Music Festial will feature select mash-up songs interwoven throughout the performance.  The Umphrey’s McGee mashups debuted on Halloween in 2008, and have become a highly anticipated live experience each year.  This marks the first time the band will feature multiple mashups outside the context of Halloween, a special treat for Wanee attendees.
