The Old City will ring with the sounds of some of the country’s most beloved vocalists this weekend with the return of the Sing Out Loud Festival’s Live Wildly Showcase.
Headliners at the St. Augustine event at Francis Field — expected to draw nearly 30,000 people over two days — include Eric Church, Norah Jones, Noah Kahan, and Ryan Bingham.
“Sing Out Loud’s Live Wildly Showcase exemplifies a long-standing commitment to collaborating with various non-profit organizations,” organizer Ryan Hall said in a release. “This year’s partnership with Live Wildly Foundation aims to raise awareness of the importance of conserving wild Florida — the natural landscapes and wildlife that make the state so exciting to explore.”
City officials anticipate thousands to attend the two-day event, and are cautioning visitors to be aware of several road closures and other logistical changes.
The Historic Downtown Parking Facility will be closed between Friday, Sept. 20, at 11 p.m. and Monday, Sept. 23, at 1 a.m.
To ease vehicle snarls, free shuttle buses will be made available throughout the weekend.
