No stadium shows, but plenty of big concerts are coming to Jacksonville this summer
There's a new venue in town. Five has opened in the former Sun-Ray Cinema space in Five Points, with room for 1,200 standing fans.
Another is coming. The Ponte Vedra Concert Hall has been closed for more than a year and will reopen in August as an expanded venue with some permanent seating. When completed, it will be about the same size as Five, and it will be interesting to see how the venues compete for acts and for fans.
A new nightclub, Decca Live, opened on Bay Street in downtown Jacksonville earlier this year and is regularly booking acts. Just down the street, the former Underbelly club has rebranded as The Albatross and has its own slate of shows.
Daily's Place has a lighter-than-usual schedule this summer as construction begins on the adjacent EverBank Stadium. There's still no word on whether Daily's will operate at all next year, when crews remove the upper decks of the stadium, or the following year, when the stadium will be closed entirely while new decks are built.
Even with all the changes, you shouldn't have to look too hard to find a show that suits your tastes.
Beatlemaniac? Ringo Starr's playing. Pre-schooler? Kidz Bop is coming. Southern rocker? Molly Hatchet's doing a hometown show at the Florida Theatre. Country? Choose between Shania Twain, Brad Paisley, Riley Green or Red Clay Strays. Heart is coming, and so is a Heartbreaker. Lil Poppa and Lil Duval all have shows on the books, as do Lil Baby, Da Baby and Skilla Baby. Jazz fans will dig Postmodern Jukebox, hip-hoppers will flock to shows by Ice Cube and Jeezy, and folks looking for a laugh have Nate Bargatze and Nikki Glaser.

From swimsuit cover-up to street style staple, this 53% off top does it all
New York Post may be compensated and/or receive an affiliate commission if you click or buy through our links. Featured pricing is subject to change. Summer is the season where you either want to be in a bikini or swaddled in the comfiest oversized shirt you can find. Sometimes both, but there is no in-between. While your old college tee has its charms, there's something to be said for upgrading instead of looking like you just lost your luggage. Enter the Trendy Queen Women's Oversized Summer T-Shirt —currently 53% off in a punchy dark pink shade that's just begging to be paired with denim shorts, bike shorts, or tossed over a swimsuit. And let's be honest: sometimes the only thing between you and a heat-induced public meltdown is the right outfit. A shirt like this is a one-step solution to summer dressing fatigue. No layering, no tugging, no thinking…just oversized softness, a pop of color, and a little 'I woke up like this' energy. Advertisement At over half off for this shade (and discounts on many of the other colors), it's the kind of deal that makes sense to stock up, because one oversized tee is never enough. Amazon The Trendy Queen Oversized Summer T-Shirt is made of a soft cotton-blend fabric designed for comfort, featuring a loose drop-shoulder cut with a tunic-style length.

The Beatles Tease A Mysterious New Release—But Fans Have A Good Hunch
(Original Caption) The Beatles are shown at a press conference at the Warwick Hotel. Standing left to right are: Ringo Starr, (wearing polka dot shirt), Paul McCartney, John Lennon, and George Harrison. Bettmann Archive 55 years after The Beatles called it quits, fans today are in a near-constant state of speculation about what the rock legends—and their estates—will release next. In recent years, that's included deluxe, remixed box sets of their classic albums; a treasure trove of remastered, never-before seen footage in Disney+'s Get Back docuseries; and of course, the 'final' Beatles song, 'Now and Then," released in 2023. The latest moptop missive arrived Tuesday morning on the band's website: a teaser image of the back of a canvas, with the numbers '1,' '2,' '3,' and '4?' cycling in the center. On Instagram, the band went further, filling the numbers with imagery seen on the cover of a 1995 release. All signs point to a 3oth anniversary re-release of The Beatles Anthology. In 1995, surviving members Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr told the band's story in a six-part TV docuseries, and also released a three-volume CD set of the same name, packed with demos, rarities, live and unreleased versions of their songs. But the Anthology project gained most notice for its two 'new' Beatles songs, 'Free as a Bird' and 'Real Love.' They were based on home demo recordings by co-founder John Lennon, made shortly before his murder in 1980. The surviving Beatles and producer Jeff Lynne utilized then-cutting-edge tech to combine Lennon's voice and piano with their new instrumentation and backing vocals. When the songs were unveiled in 1995, public response was mixed. Many listeners felt the quality of Lennon's home recordings left the singer muddy and indecipherable in the mix. 'Now and Then" was actually planned for Anthology as well, but sessions were abandoned partway through (Harrison, according to his bandmates, wasn't enjoying himself). Instead, McCartney and Starr picked things up nearly 30 years later to finish the recording—and it was immediately clear just how far audio technology had advanced in the decades since. AI tech allowed Lennon's voice and piano to be separated onto their own tracks and cleaned up to near-studio quality. The success of 'Now and Then' led to immediate speculation: would the band attempt to remix 'Free as a Bird' and 'Real Love' using today's tech? A huge clue arrived earlier this month, when Spotify and other DSPs amended those songs' titles with the words '1995 Mix.' Tuesday's announcement not only strengthens that theory, but points to an entire re-release of the Anthology album set—along with a brand-new fourth volume. The band has stuck to anniversaries for their re-releases, and 2025 marks thirty years since Anthology arrived. The canvas graphic used in the announcement is the same used for the back covers of the original collection. Other points are less clear: Will this endeavor include a reissue (and possible remaster) of the Anthology docuseries? And when can we expect any of this to drop? For now, the band's simply asking for fans to 'Stay Tuned' on its teaser page.

Exploring faith and identity: Jewish teens program to debut in Delray Beach
Have you heard of J-T-Q-E? It stands for Jewish Teens Questioning Everything, and it's a new program launching this school year at Temple Anshei Shalom in Delray Beach. Geared toward students in grades 8 to 12, the classes will take place bimonthly, alternating between in-person and Zoom sessions. With growing antisemitism on college campuses and in classrooms, J-T-Q-E will focus on Judaism and showing kids that being Jewish is something to be celebrated. Each week, a different topic will be discussed, including: Did G-d create humans or did humans create G-d? Really, I have to say thanks? A dollar bill is Jewish? Holocaust: A dying memory Superman, Spiderman, Bat Girl are Jewish?' Students will be encouraged to freely express their points of view, ask questions and engage in debates and open conversations, according to Andy Greenberg, a Temple Anshei Shalom member who created the program as a volunteer. The Lake Worth resident said he has been educating Jewish students for more than 25 years, nine of them in South Florida. The program has a one-time $18 enrollment fee to cover security costs and does not require participants to be members of Temple Anshei Shalom. However, teens must be residents of Palm Beach County. Classes are scheduled to begin Sept. 8 with a virtual orientation session and end May 18. The deadline to enroll is Sept. 4. To sign up, visit or email JTQE@ For more information, call 561-495-1300.
