Great,Great show the venue was right by the water great line up had relatives in town they loved it.
I moved to Pensacola approximately two years ago from Maryland and this by far has been the best event I have attended locally here. The artist performances were all great, getting inside the venue was great, parking was free and it was plenty of room to maneuver around. I really hope the promoter can pull this Jazz event off again next year.
I came all the way from Atlanta to see the show, there was a free show IN Atlanta on the same day, but this was well worth it, I WILL BE BACK!
The 2016 Gulf Coast Summer Fest was my very first outdoor jazz festival experience and it was AWESOME! All of the entertainers were great. At one point it seemed like the weather was not going to hold but it did and all were able to perform. The location was perfect. Right on the water. Could not have asked for a better location. I would definitely attend again.
The venue was perfect! Weather was perfect! Started on time and the ticket line was very well organized. Grown and sexy adults having a blast! Music was excellent and the food truck choices were great!
The show was very well put together excellent line up. Can wait for the next one. Cadillac your the bomb. Leonard from new Orleans.
Stefanie Mills and the Whisperers were fair, but there was entirely too much time wasted before Gladys Knight appeared. There was no encore by any of the acts. Ms Knight has a beautiful voice and was worth the wait, but I signed up to go to a music performance, not a revival. Over half the audience had left prior to the final song, and I understand why.
Stephanie Mills opened up and she was very entertaining much better than I expected, the Whispers were not as good as I expected but they were funny and sang the songs I wanted to hear. Glady's looked great and sounded great being 71. She is a superb performer.
The Pensacola Summer Fest was great! Gladys Knight, Stephaine Mills, and the Whirspers put on a great show, the staff was very friendly and parking was awesome. I had a floor seat 8th row 8th seat which was a problem the seat was just to close too each other no arm room at all, had to set on the edge of my seat so I would not have my arms on top of the person on both sides of me. There was a lot of people coming from others seats to seats that was empty in front of us did not think that was fair. Other then that the show was wonderful.
Great show, but the acoustics where poor in the upper levels
2015 Summerfest was a blast. Hope to attend more of these in the future.
The entire show was on point.I enjoyed each performer.They all brought a fresh old school energy .Can't wait until the next event.If you were not in attendance,you missed a great shoe.
My biggest complaints with the event were the MC, the lengthy time between each artist and poor sound quality. The MC spoke too loud into the microphone, the sound of his voice was unpleasant and his jokes weren't funny. In fact, the lengthy time between each artist wouldn't have been too bad, if they had a better MC, or if they played music, while the crew set up the stage. The artists performed well, but the audio system's sound quality could've been better. Poor acoustics may have played a role in the subpar sound. Overall, the show was good, but the management could've been better.
Gladys knight, Stephanie mills, and the whispers put on a great show.
All of the performers were excellent ! they worked hard to perform for the audience and did a super job performing the hits we love the most. My complaints will be with the MC and others babbling about nothing in particular just taking up time and the 30-40 minutes between sets, with some planning that time could have been half that. My biggest complaint would be the Vendors walking the aisle 'during' the show to sell flashing trinklets, blocking the view. That's not allowed at any Disney Ice show that is geared for kids were this would be more appropriate, and had no place at this concert.
Was not supposed to be attending the show because I purchased these tickets for my Aunt and Uncle... They ended up not going because they did not make it to Pensacola...I totally enjoyed the show...will absolutely attend next year : )
