Triple B Festival triumphs with community spirit and sunshine

The event, growing ever grander and livelier, saw over 150 vendors filling Main Street, West Oakdale Avenue, and North Wilson Street. From tantalizing BBQ vendors and craft beer tents to local artists, businesses, organizations, and food trucks, there was something for everyone. Music filled the air, as three stages hosted seven incredible bands. The lineup, which included Brennan Wilson and Nick Schwendt, Josh Davis, DJ Mike Ice, Maybe Tomorrow, The Friskeys, and The Velveteen, serenaded attendees with performances spanning multiple genres, creating an uplifting soundtrack for the day.

The Triple B Festival remains a cornerstone of Crestview’s community culture. Its name encapsulates its essence—bands, brews, and BBQ—and this year, it delivered generously on all fronts. The Main Street Association, the driving force behind the event’s success, deserves tremendous credit for their dedication to organizing and executing such a memorable experience for locals and visitors alike.

The joy was evident as attendees strolled downtown with shaved ice in one hand and BBQ in the other, smiles beaming everywhere you turned. Families explored the vibrant offerings, locals deepened their connections with their community, and many discovered new ways to get involved with local organizations. Meanwhile, children reveled in the Kid’s Zone by Gordon Martial Arts, mastering obstacle courses amidst a swirl of bubbles.

The Triple B Festival is more than just an event—it’s a celebration of Crestview’s vibrant spirit and a testament to the power of community gatherings. As the festival continues to grow, it remains an annual highlight that brings joy, connection, and unforgettable experiences to everyone involved. Here’s to even greater celebrations in the years ahead!
