If you're tired of the same old Thanksgiving eve scenario, here's a fresh take on pre-turkey day camaraderie. JaxParks is rolling out the inaugural Friendsgiving at Friendship Fountain, a community-centric shindig slated to bask in gratifying grub and tuneful melodies. On Sunday, November 24, from 2 – 7 p.m., downtown at 1015 Museum Circle morphs into a hub for locals to dig into Thanksgiving staples and sway to the beats of Adam Cotton, a soundtrack suited for ushering in the holiday warmth, according to the City of Jacksonville.

The event promises plenty of tables and chairs, so everyone can relax and enjoy their food. There will be homemade pies from the Peach Cobbler Factory, drinks from the fountain bar, and local food trucks serving Thanksgiving-themed dishes. Plus, live music by Adam Cotton will set the mood for a fun, laid-back Sunday full of community and friendship, as reported by the City of Jacksonville.

JaxParks isn’t just hosting a one-time event – they’re creating a new annual tradition to bring the community together. The invitation encourages everyone to come enjoy food, fun, and gratitude with family and friends before the Thanksgiving rush begins. Get ready, City of Jacksonville – it’s time to make Friendsgiving a new holiday favorite.
