Wild Heaven Brewery brings back Jimmy Fest for a full day of tropical tunes, cold brews and Buffett-style celebration
Parrotheads, beach lovers and Buffett fans—get ready to toast to the good life at “Jimmy Fest: Celebrating the Life and Music of Jimmy Buffett,” returning to Wild Heaven Brewery in Avondale Estates on Sunday, June 22. Running from 1 p.m. – 8 p.m., this free, all-day festival promises a tropical escape filled with live music, cold drinks and laid-back summer vibes.
Hosted by Nero Simon and the Sunsetters, this year’s “Jimmy Fest” welcomes an incredible lineup of local talent, including special guest Jeff Pike of A1A, America’s original Jimmy Buffett tribute band. The stage will also feature performances from Magnolia Express, The Surly Trolls, Andrew James, Jarvis Taylor and Andrew Holley—each bringing their own island-inspired sound to the mix.
With more than 40 Buffett songs on the setlist (plus covers from artists like Zac Brown, James Taylor, Kenny Chesney, and more), expect a soundtrack tailor-made for sipping brews in the sun. And speaking of brews—Wild Heaven will debut a special island-style lager crafted just for the occasion.
The event is free and family-friendly, with donations encouraged to benefit Mullen’s Miracles, a nonprofit supporting mental health awareness and suicide prevention.
So grab your Hawaiian shirt, rally your crew and don’t miss this celebration of music, community and the easygoing spirit of Jimmy Buffett—Nero Simons and the Sunsetters style…
