Labor Day weekend in downtown Jacksonville will start with live music and local food at Rock the Block.<\/p>\n
The family-friendly event will be held on Sept. 4 from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. on New Bridge Street, and is at no-cost to the public.<\/p>\n
The event is a celebration of the completion of the New Bridge Street project and a grand reopening for the road.<\/p>\n
The New Bridge Street project was an infrastructure and streetscape improvement project that made changes to stormwater, sidewalks, street lighting, landscaping, medians and delivery areas.<\/p>\n
To celebrate, Rock the Block will have a street fair featuring local businesses as vendors, food trucks and beer tents, said Lisa Miller, Jacksonville public information officer.<\/p>\n
There will also be a pop-up car show for people to enjoy, Miller said.<\/p>\n
Attendees will be able to enjoy live music from The Phoebes and Zach Harrington, along with a silent disco.<\/p>\n
People are encouraged to bring lawn chairs for the concert. No outside alcohol or coolers will be allowed into the event.<\/p>\n
Additionally, Jacksonville Transit will be providing shuttle services to help with people who have to park at a distance from the event, Miller said.<\/p>\n
