Main Street Live is back (and better than ever) with local food trucks, vendors, family-friendly activities, and more!

Who doesn’t love a good block party? Formerly known as “Get Down Downtown,” Main Street Live, presented by Independent Jones, is finally returning to downtown Bradenton! They’ve partnered with the City of Bradenton Community Redevelopment Agency to support and showcase the best of Bradenton. 

According to CEO & President of Independent Jones, Morgan Bettes Angell, “While supporting local vendors, guests can enjoy music, food, and art from the community… and we hope to see everyone there to reconnect with family and neighbors to dance the night away!”

The heartbeat of Main Street Live will be their concert series featuring regional and local acts. City of Bradenton CRA Executive Director Katerina Gerakios-Siren, said, “We look forward to Main Street Live becoming one of the premier outdoor concert series of our city and supporting our local businesses.”

Live music will be played on the main stage located on Old Main Street from 6 to 9 p.m. Local entertainers can contact talent@independentjones.com for more information about performing.
