It’s officially up! Funk Fest: The Rebirth is pulling back up to the 904 and bringing two days of legendary energy to Metropolitan Park on May 9th and 10th, and trust this one’s for the culture.
After a multi-year hiatus, Jacksonville’s been begging for the return of this iconic music fest, and now the streets are getting what they asked for. This year’s lineup is stacked with heat, but let’s be real – Boosie is coming to turn the city all the way up. Known for his raw lyrics, unfiltered personality and ride-or-die fanbase, Boosie’s performance is expected to be one of the weekend’s biggest moments. Whether you’re rocking with “Set It Off,” vibing to “Wipe Me Down,” or catching that Louisiana bounce live, the stage is gonna be lit.
And Boosie’s not coming alone. He’s sharing the bill with certified icons like Charlie Wilson, Trey Songz, King George, 112, Marsha Ambrosius, Donell Jones, 8Ball & MJG, Carl Thomas, Tela, and new heat like 803 Fresh. From Southern soul to slow jams to full-blown turn-up tracks, the vibes will not miss.
Between sets, it’s a whole other party. Funk Fest is known for way more than music – think good eats, cold drinks, nonstop dancing, and a crowd full of fly fits and even flyer energy. With DJ Traci Steele, DJ Stormy, DJ Bo Weezy, DJ Trucker, DJ Demp, and Jacksonville’s own Dr. Doom on the decks, expect the beats to keep flowing between every performance. From line dances to slow grinds and club-ready cuts, every moment is made to move.
“Jacksonville has always been a special city for Funk Fest,” said Leo Bennett, founder of Funk Fest and CEO of Variety Entertainment. “The love and passion from the fans here have been undeniable, and we knew we had to bring this experience back to where it belongs.”
So yeah – Funk Fest isn’t just a concert, it’s a whole vibe. It’s the link-up, the cultural reset, the weekend you remember all summer long. Whether you’re pulling up with your day ones or just coming to catch a legend or two live, this is the one.
