Featured Performers

Enjoy a weekend of entertainment, participation and exhibits.

Along the banks of the historic Suwannee River in White Springs, Florida, folk artists long have gathered to celebrate Florida’s land, people and diverse cultural heritage. Since its humble beginning in 1953, the Florida Folk Festival has not only grown to become Florida’s most prestigious affair but also is named “Florida’s Best Cultural Event.” The festival has also been recognized by the Southeast Tourism Society as a “Top 20 Event” in the southeastern United States.

Get ready for a fun and entertaining weekend for the entire family! Featured performers are listed below with the times for their amphitheater performance. Many will be performing or teaching workshops some other time throughout the weekend along with our special guest artists. You can even dance the night away each evening with a variety of dances. We are working to schedule performers for 2025. Our full schedule of events for specific times and stages will be posted as the festival nears. Check the website in March for updates.
