MOBILE, Alabama (WALA) – Mobile welcomes many different artists to the stage for the 5th annual MOB Music Festival on Cathedral Square.
The concert takes place from July 8-10 and aims to give musicians a chance to showcase their talents, develop their platforms and bring the community together.
The concert is hosted by Opportunity for Entertainers and Performing Arts, a non-profit organization dedicated to finding unity through music.
“The reason we’re doing this is because we want to highlight artists of all genres of music because Mobile has a growing music scene, but it’s also highlighting issues and bringing resources to the community,” said CEO Kalinskey Adams.
MOB Music Fest also gives hidden artists a chance to make their debut.
Tiffany Rencher, president of Opportunity for Entertainers and Performing Arts, believes in this mission.
“Mobile has a lot of talent that doesn’t always get a platform to perform, so five years ago we decided to set the stage as a free, family concert to give our local talent a chance to showcase their talent,” said Rencher.
MOB Music Fest is supported by many local businesses and organizations.
“People like the Mobile Health Department are supporting us, and we just want to make sure that we’re raising awareness because with these issues that are happening, it takes everything, and we want to use our platform to make sure that we’re raising awareness about that,” Adams added. .
MOB Music Fest kicks off at Cathedral Square in Downtown Mobile nightly at 5 p.m. Tickets are free, and guests are invited to enjoy a variety of genres.
