The annual Jacksonville Jewish Cultural Arts Festival at Murray Hill Theatre, in Jacksonville, on April 11, 2026. This year the organizers booked Matisyahu.

We saw Matisyahu in Oct 2025 and said, “It took a little longer, but as promised, the band came back, taking their position. This time, the empty center stage is now filled by Matisyahu, who takes the full spotlight. And when I say spotlight, at times, whoever was working the lights had turned it on so bright that Matisyahu kept asking them to turn it down. The Ponte Vedra Concert Hall venue has all-new sound equipment and light system, that perhaps they were still working out what works best. The lights and sounds were incredible, but in this situation, it seemed like it could have benefited with a low-key or dimmed lights. In typical Matisyahu shows, there were people who came to his show with the flag of Israel. This is like if you go to a band from Wales and you will always see the Welsh flag. The fans of certain countries will be proud to be out to show support for the bands.”
