Jupiter’s new Wahoo Music Festival is just weeks away.
JUPITER — A new music festival blending country, folk and singer-songwriter tunes with raising funds for cancer research is just a couple of weeks away.
Wahoo Music Festival will feature six artists at the Abacoa Amphitheater at the Abacoa Town Center along Main Street and University Boulevard in Jupiter from 2 to 10 p.m. on Feb. 28.
The event is led by the owners of an artist management and development company whose longtime dream was to create a music festival together, according to co-founder Noah Schwartz.
“Wahoo is more than just a festival — it’s about connection, discovery, and giving back,” wrote Schwartz in a prepared statement. “We want to create an event that artists are excited to play and fans are excited to return to year after year.”
How much do Wahoo Music Festival tickets cost?
Tickets cost $46.09 (including fees) until Feb. 15 as part of a Valentine’s Day flash sale, but the cost will rise after that. The “early bird” and “tier 1” general admission tickets are sold out.
Festival-goers can park at any of the three public parking garages or street parking at the Abacoa Town Center.
The artist lineup includes St. Paul & The Broken Bones, Josh Meloy, Zinadelphia, Nick Folwarczny, Brady Brazeal and Jupiter-native Andrew Martinez.
Wahoo Music Festival will make its debut in the wake of the cancellation of SunFest, which was Palm Beach County’s largest live music event, and a trend of retrenching music festivals nationwide.
Wahoo Music Festival is not the only new music festival to recently make its way to Jupiter. The town welcomed HarbourFest in October 2025.
The festival is expected to return to Jupiter annually.
How does Wahoo Music Festival raise funds to help cancer patients?
One dollar of every ticket sold will be donated to the Gift of Life Marrow Registry, which is a nonprofit that seeks to help cure blood cancer and facilitate transplants for patients.
Schwartz personally faced cancer after discovering a baseball-sized mass pressing against his heart and lungs in 2021. As a cancer survivor, he wants to give back to others facing the same battle.
“Thankfully, this chapter is now behind me—but it was definitely the most challenging period of my life,” Schwartz wrote in a prepared statement. “Sharing my story and giving back in any way possible is incredibly important to me, and it’s a reminder of how vital awareness, early action, and support can be.”
