“LIVE AT THE WATERWORKS”
A GAMBLE ROGERS CONCERT SERIES

We have partnered with the St. Johns Cultural Council to present "Live from The Waterworks: A Gamble Rogers Concert Series" to celebrate the legendary recording artist Gamble Rogers whose balladry and storytelling helped to shape American folk music! On the third Saturday of each month, a local or regional musician will open for a nationally known act at The Waterworks (184 San Marco Avenue), built in 1898 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

We still have a few tickets left for our December show!

Winter Season tickets on sale now and include preferred seating and a complimentary beverage! Individual show tickets are also available at the above Purchase Tickets button.

Beer, wine and other beverages will be available for purchase. Ticket fees will go to support the nonprofit Gamble Rogers Folk Festival (a 501-3C) held on April 14th, 15th and 16th, 2023, at the St. Johns County Fairgrounds.

IT'S HAPPENING!

The Gamble Rogers Folk Festival is delighted to announce that we are returning to our old stomping grounds at the St. Johns County Fairgrounds!

We hope you all will make plans to join us this spring for wonderful music, multiple stages, camping, food trucks, local artisans and vendors!
