This year's Float Fest will move to its new home at a private ranch on the Guadalupe River in Gonzalez, Texas after being held previously on the San Marcos River.
“We’re excited to bring back Float Fest for its sixth year and host some of the nation’s most talented artists to produce a unique experience in Gonzales,” said Float Fest founder Marcus Federman. “We’re thrilled to be moving to a new city and keep the tradition of our fest going. Gonzales is known as the birthplace of Texas independence and we can't think of a better place to celebrate a festival rich in Texas traditions such as live music, floating the river, and camping.”
Additional performers include G. Love & Special Sauce, Missio, St. Lucia, Houndmouth, The Floozies and more. The festival will also be partnering once again this year with local business to organize a river cleanup project.
Tickets are available now, including weekend and day passes and VIP tickets, via the festival's website.
