DwightFest, Inc. is a non-profit charity, hosting the inaugural DwightFest, a two-day musical festival on December 7-8, 2024, at Gulf Place Green Space and Amphitheater in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida. #30atv
Fifteen musicians and bands including our headliner the chart-topping Paul Thorn, Joanna Cotten of Eric Church’s band, Nashville’s Laura Lamb, two-time Grammy winner Timothy Bloom, world touring artist Grayson Capps, and the chart-topping Emily West will perform.
*Please see full lineup & schedule at bottom of page.
Named and founded in honor of local pottery artist Dwight Ward, proceeds from #DwightFest will benefit local artists, musicians and service industry workers who need unexpected financial healthcare assistance.
For over thirty years, Dwight has been a fixture and ambassador for local artists and events along Florida’s Emerald Coast.
Dwight’s name always rises to the top of the ladder of those who have worked tirelessly to promote local artists. After suffering a severe stroke in 2023 and unable to produce his art, several of his friends decided the best way to honor Dwight’s achievements is by passing along his willingness to help other artists in need.
The two-day event will include food trucks, beverage stations, and musician and festival merchandise. Please join us in making this a successful event, giving back to those that make our paradise possible!
