Antioch Jazz & Blues Festival Brings a Full Day of Live Music to Williamson Ranch Park
The May 9 event lines up five bands, food trucks, artisan vendors, and outdoor seating for a long spring afternoon in Antioch.
Antioch has a big community music event on the horizon for Mother’s Day weekend. The Antioch Jazz & Blues Festival is set for Saturday, May 9 at Williamson Ranch Park, with a full afternoon of live music, food, and outdoor festival energy in one of the city’s familiar gathering spots.
The event is scheduled from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and is set to feature five live bands, along with a guest appearance by the Deer Valley High School Jazz Band. Food trucks, artisan vendors, beer and wine, shaded seating, and room for blankets and chairs all point to an event designed for people to settle in and enjoy the day rather than just make a quick stop.
That setup gives the festival an easy, stay-a-while feel that fits well in East County, especially for families, music fans, and anyone looking for a relaxed local outing. With Williamson Ranch Park as the backdrop and Mother’s Day weekend timing, it shapes up as one of Antioch’s more substantial spring community events.
