ree Flowin’ on the Riverfront, the free music festival brought to the community by the City of Pascagoula and Main Street Pascagoula, will take the stage on April 13 at Pascagoula’s Lighthouse Park. The festival celebrates the
beauty of the Pascagoula River, the largest free-flowing river in the continental United States.
“We will have great music, great food and arts and crafts vendors available all day,” said Charlie Latady, chairperson of the event. “Classic cars and fun activities for the kids will also highlight this year’s event. It is
a family atmosphere — something for everyone. Bring your lawn chair and enjoy the day.”
This year’s event will feature four bands with concerts beginning at noon and playing back to back into the evening. The Red Clay Strays will be the headliner to close out the performances. The night will end with a fireworks show over the Pascagoula River.
