Welcome to the FMF experience... one of the biggest independent music events in the country, right here in your own backyard. It’s also one of the biggest parties in Orlando. Celebrating it’s 18th year, the Florida Music Festival is a 3 day unsigned artist showcase, in which more than 125 artists from around the country come to Orlando to play a 30 minute power packed showcase for the attending music industry and more importantly, the fans on 10 stages all within walking distance downtown. It’s all about discovering new music... We had a young Taylor Swift play her first show at Wall St Plaza when she was only 14 years old!
