Pompano Beach Seafood Festival 2019: The Music Line-up, The Food, The New Site Plan

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The 35th annual Pompano Beach Seafood Festival will help kick off summer with a ton of seafood, arts, crafts, vendors and live music. Due to construction by the pier, this year’s festival will take place at the Pompano Beach Amphitheater and Community Park instead of the usual beach location.

You’ll still find the interesting vendors, great music and tons of seafood from restaurants in Pompano Beach and around South Florida.  The highlight is always Papa Hughie’s Seafood World, the famed Lighthouse Point restaurant.  You can always find jerk chicken, turkey legs and other non-seafood delicacies as well.

There will be three stages set up for the festival, with the Pompano Beach Amphitheater hosting the headlining acts.  Admission to the amphitheater is free with your event ticket purchase.

This year’s musical lineup included The Guess Who (American Woman, No Time), Foghat (Slow Ride, Fool for the City), Inner Circle (Sweat, Bad Boys- the theme from the TV show Cops) and Zach Deputy.  Deputy describes his music as “island-infused drum n’ bass gospel ninja soul.”

Zach Deputy will headline Friday night’s festival (8:45 pm).  Foghat (5:45 pm), and the Guess Who (8:15 pm) will perform on Saturday.  Inner Circle will close out the three day Pompano Beach event on Sunday evening (6:15 pm).
