Last year more than 15,000 attended Gulf Coast Rhythm & Ribs Music Fest and enjoyed incredible performances and great food. Each year this event gets bigger and better, and 2016 will be even better! We’ve expanded our incredible lineup and added even more exciting events and a new location!
Located just south of Tampa Bay on the Gulf Coast of Florida, the beautiful counties of Manatee and Sarasota are home to more than 600,000 residents. This event reaches a diverse cross-section of residents and visitors in the Central and Southwest Florida areas during the peak of tourist season.
“A Party with a Purpose” - The Gulf Coast Rhythm & Ribs Music Fest is a major annual fundraising event benefiting United Community Centers, Inc. who has provided educational, social and recreational programs to thousands of low income At-risk youth since its inception in 1937. These Community Centers give disadvantaged youth the tools necessary to find healthy solutions to the problems of poverty, drugs, crime, teen pregnancy and low self-esteem. United Community Centers, Inc. is a 501(c) 3 not-for-profit organization and all or a portion of contributions are tax-deductible.
Please consider volunteering your time at the 10th Annual Gulf Coast Rhythm & Ribs Music Fest.
You will not only have fun volunteering at the event, but are able to stay before and after
