JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Fans hoping to head down to Metro Park for the sold-out River City Smoke Show were asked to pump the brakes Saturday afternoon when organizers said lightning and dangerous weather in the area forced an indefinite delay to the festivities.
They later posted an update saying gates would open at 5 p.m. They had been scheduled to open at 3 p.m.
Fans were asked not to head down to Metropolitan Park early for their safety.
Officials said updates would be sent via River City Smoke Show’s website (https://www.rivercitysmokeshow.com/) and social handles on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.
“It’s OK. We went to Walmart, got some ponchos so we’re good and ready to go,” said Amber Wagoner, who’s visiting from Alabama.
Participants at the River City Smoke Show include Sugarfire Smokehouse, The Bearded Pig, the Jacksonville Firefighters Union and Southern Soul Barbeque from nearby St. Simons Island.
The concert lineup includes Jon Pardi, John Michael Montgomery, Molly Hatchet, Larry Fleet and Dean Dillon.
The event is set to end at 10:30 p.m. with fireworks.
