“This will be the eighth con­sec­u­tive year that ECP has been a spon­sor of the 30A Song­writ­ers Fes­ti­val,” said Park­er McClel­lan Jr., A.A.E., Air­port Exec­u­tive Direc­tor. ​“ECP wel­comes many of the Fes­ti­val atten­dees and per­form­ers that trav­el here from out of state, mak­ing our spon­sor­ship a per­fect fit.” 

The Fes­ti­val line­up con­sists of over 200 artists and over 25 venues along High­way 30A. The 30A Song­writ­ers Fes­ti­val pro­duc­tion team trans­forms a vari­ety of venues, rang­ing from large amphithe­aters to inti­mate cov­ered patios, into unique music set­tings. Venue capac­i­ty ranges from 75 to 100 indoors and 5,000 seats out­doors. This year’s head­lin­ers include triple Gram­my nom­i­nat­ed John Prine, Indi­go Girls, Tanya Tuck­er, Bri­an Wil­son and his 9 piece band, Don McLean and Herman’s Her­mits star­ring Peter Noone. 

Addi­tion­al con­firmed per­form­ers include Casey Kear­ney, Danielle Howle, David Ryan Har­ris and Reed Wad­dle, Paul Thorn, Noah Zacharin, Nik­ki Lane, Liz Brash­er, Jer­ry Joseph, Heather Mal­oney, Grayson Capps, Davin McCoy and Dan Navar­ro, and many more. 

“The 30A Song­writ­ers Fes­ti­val brings an array of world class musi­cians right to South Wal­ton, Flori­da. About 70% of our audi­ence flies in from out of town,” said Rus­sell Carter Man­age­ment. ​“Thanks to spon­sors like ECP, atten­dees get to enjoy top­notch enter­tain­ment in inti­mate lis­ten­ing rooms across the 30A area.” 

The Fes­ti­val ben­e­fits the Cul­tur­al Arts Alliance of Wal­ton Coun­ty, sup­port­ing artists and non­prof­it cul­tur­al events through­out the coun­ty. 100 per­cent of the event’s net pro­ceeds are paid to CAA to fund the annu­al budget. 

Fes­ti­val week­end pass­es start at $330 and may be pur­chased at https://​30a​song​writ​ers​fes​ti​val​.com/​t​i​c​kets/.
