LNE and its founder, Vince Carrick, have been bringing the annual Reggae Rise Up here since 2014. That\u2019s an estimated 60,000 people, over three days every spring, in St. Petersburg\u2019s Vinoy Park.<\/p>\n<p>(Reggae Rise Up\u2019s 2026 event dates are March 12 through 15.)<\/p>\n<p>LNE also works with the nonprofit Gasparilla Music Foundation to put together Tampa\u2019s annual Gasparilla Music Festival, which took a hiatus in 2025.<\/p>\n<p>The company is working in the same capacity \u2013 handling certain operational aspects and marketing \u2013 for the promoters of the St. Pete Country Fest, Friday through Sunday (Nov. 21-23) in Vinoy Park. That, of course, is right on the bayfront, meaning sweet saltwater breezes and stunning views. Even if it should happen to be chilly.<\/p>\n<p>Nobody knows how to set up and take down a massive festival in Vinoy Park, without leaving a footprint, better than LNE. It takes a small army to fence in and build the festival area, which has four stages and a veritable city of food, drink and other vendors.<\/p>\n<p>More than 50 artists, say promoters, will perform between Friday and Sunday. Headliners:<\/p>\n<p>Texas guitarists Lance Vanley and his nephew Jeremiah are the lynchpins of Odessa\u2019s Treaty Oak Revival, Friday\u2019s headlining band. \u201cRed Dirt country\u201d is often used to describe such hardscrabble, salt-of-the-earth music from Oklahoma and Texas. TOR lives in that sweet space between contemporary country and tough, crunchy rock \u2018n\u2019 roll, with an emphasis on harmony vocals. Best known tunes: \u201cOde to Bourbon,\u201d \u201cMissed Call,\u201d \u201cIn Between,\u201d \u201cNo Vacancy,\u201d \u201cBad State of Mind.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Friday Mainstage acts:<\/p>\n<p>Treaty Oak Revival (8:30-10 p.m.)<\/p>\n<p>Chase Rice (7-8 p.m.)<\/p>\n<p>Ole 60 (5-6 p.m.)<\/p>\n<p>Fox \u2018n Vead (3:30-4:15 p.m.)<\/p>\n<p>Other Friday performers include Sam Barber, Avery Anna, Jon Langston, Noah Hunton and more.<\/p>\n<p>Saturday headliner Parker McCollum is another Texan; he\u2019s from a small town near Houston and has called Austin home for years. McCollum, too, exemplifies Red Dirt country, which brings a young vibe and particular attitude to the music. Named the Academy of Country Music\u2019s New Male Artist of the Year in 2021, he has three platinum singles: \u201cPretty Heart,\u201d \u201cHandle on You\u201d and \u201cBurn it Down.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Saturday Mainstage acts:<\/p>\n<p>Parker McCollum (8:30-10 p.m.)<\/p>\n<p>Flatland Cavalry (7-8 p.m.)<\/p>\n<p>Conner Smith (5-6 p.m.)<\/p>\n<p>Vincent Mason (3:30-4:15)<\/p>\n<p>Hannah McFarland (2:30-3 p.m.)<\/p>\n<p>Other Saturday performers include: Country Night Featuring Tyler Cameron, Brendan Walter, Madison Hughes, Grayson Downs &amp; Craig Henry and more.<\/p>\n<p>Sunday\u2019s mainstage bill-topper is Red Clay Strays, a soulful rock \u2018n\u2019 roll-leaning outfit from Mobile, Alabama. According the Strays\u2019 website, their music is \u201c straddling fiery Southern rock riffs, tender-hearted soul music, and tried-and-true country crooning.\u201d The band\u2019s newest single is \u201cPeople Hatin.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sunday Mainstage acts:<\/p>\n<p>Red Clay Strays (8:30-10 p.m.)<\/p>\n<p>Muscadine Bloodline (7-8 p.m.)<\/p>\n<p>Hudson Westbrook (5-6 p.m.)<\/p>\n<p>Emily Ann Roberts (3:30-4:15 p.m.)<\/p>\n<p>Blake Whitten (2:30-3 p.m.)<\/p>\n<p>Other Sunday performers include Elizabeth Nichols, Clayton Mullen, Reece, Brent Underwood &amp; Bart Lattimore and more.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/stpetecountryfest.com\/schedule\/?_gl=1*16uh3gs*_up*MQ..*_gs*MQ..&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQiArOvIBhDLARIsAPwJXOY-68fndptv3B3m-eujfONcCMgHZrS_ejs6B0gkDw4cLGcwfFvcmpAaAoieEALw_wcB&amp;gbraid=0AAAAA-7DB-b0AT9D8HMiyUa51YSTbV1hV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Find the full lineup at this link<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/stpetecountryfest.com\/info\/?_gl=1*16uh3gs*_up*MQ..*_gs*MQ..&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQiArOvIBhDLARIsAPwJXOY-68fndptv3B3m-eujfONcCMgHZrS_ejs6B0gkDw4cLGcwfFvcmpAaAoieEALw_wcB&amp;gbraid=0AAAAA-7DB-b0AT9D8HMiyUa51YSTbV1hV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Find festival hours at this link<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/stpetecountryfest.com\/info\/?_gl=1*1lszm2v*_up*MQ..*_gs*MQ..&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQiArOvIBhDLARIsAPwJXOY-68fndptv3B3m-eujfONcCMgHZrS_ejs6B0gkDw4cLGcwfFvcmpAaAoieEALw_wcB&amp;gbraid=0AAAAA-7DB-b0AT9D8HMiyUa51YSTbV1hV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Find frequently asked questions at this link<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventliveus.com\/event\/10109\/spcf25\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Find all tickets at this link<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-109225\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/SPCF25_FestivalMap_SQ_1762554083290-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Salt Lake City-based LNE Presents is involved with more bay area music festivals, historically, than any other company.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":50031,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[202,204,203,199,201,200],"class_list":["post-50030","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-st-petersburg","tag-st-pete","tag-st-pete-headlines","tag-st-pete-news","tag-st-petersburg","tag-st-petersburg-headlines","tag-st-petersburg-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50030","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=50030"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50030\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/50031"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=50030"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=50030"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=50030"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
