SunFest 2024

Florida’s waterfront festival that has celebrated art, music, and friendship for almost 40 years returns to West Palm Beach from May 3 through May 5, 2024.

SunFest 2024 will be packed with headliners, local performances and unforgettable moments.  With over 25 performers, tons of food vendors, activations, and bars, there’s something for everyone! 

The West Palm Beach music festival takes place along the Intracoastal Waterway in Downtown West Palm Beach. The festival grounds are on Flagler Drive in between Banyan Boulevard and Lakeview Avenue.

Fresh Local Artists

This year, SunFest is showcasing Fresh Local Artists (FLA) at the waterfront music festival. In partnership with 1909, a nonprofit in West Palm Beach dedicated to the holistic growth of creators through member access to one-of-a-kind, collaborative community, workspace, accelerator programs and mentorships, the two organizations will offer local bands the opportunity to audition for SunFest 2023. Several local artists will have the chance to perform during the three-day festival and a few lucky artists could open for headline entertainers.
