April 12-16, 2011
Phillip Haire
Celebrating its sixth year, the Wanee festival has grown to become one of the Southeast’s most popular music events. Nestled in beautiful Live Oak, Florida, Wanee features enough talent to encompass three full days of music amid the natural backdrop of oak canopy. Your hosts, the Allman Brothers, headline the festivities with friends Widespread Panic and others. Wanee is not a “jam-band” only affair, as there are acts ranging from funk to reggae and genres yet to be defined. Check the official website for set times, tickets, directions, etc. Weekend tickets also include on-site primitive camping, so pack your tent and cooler!
