The weekend is here! After a few days hunkering down during Hurricane Ian, we're so excited to get out and enjoy some fun festivals, events, and concerts! This weekend, celebrate LOVE at Jacksonville Pride, tour the recently opened USS Orleck in downtown Jax, jam out at a concert, and more. Be sure to scroll to the end for next weekends events as well! We hope you'll find something fun from our curated list.

9/28:USS Orleck Opening to the Public 

Since Wednesday, Sept. 28, Northeast Florida residents and visitors alike are able to board the USS Orleck, the most decorated Gearing Class Destroyer. Guests can experience the ship’s bridge, combat information center, division commander’s stateroom, galley, wardroom, mess decks and climb into one of the main guns of the ship. The USS Orleck arrived in DT Jax in March and we're so excited that it's finally open for tours!
