Shinn Dig 2026: A Day of Music, Community, and Heart at Tigre Island Room

Feb 7

The heart of Fernandina Beach is about to beat a little louder.

On Saturday, March 28, the 3rd Annual Shinn Dig returns to the Tigre Island Room for an unforgettable all-day festival celebrating original music, regional artistry, and deep community roots. Running from 11:00 AM to 11:00 PM, this year’s Shinn Dig brings even more soul, sound, and connection than ever before.

Curated by local artist and songwriter Andria Shinn, Shinn Dig is far more than a concert. It’s a gathering of voices, stories, and the people who make this creative community what it is. From its very first year, the event has grown into a cornerstone for music lovers, families, and artists alike — a space where new songs are born, friendships are built, and the next generation of musicians finds their spark.

What is Shinn Dig?

Shinn Dig is a community-driven music festival highlighting original artists, local songwriters, and the next generation of musicians. With live performances across two stages, Salt Marsh Kids programming, food trucks, and a live auction, Shinn Dig is a full-day experience built around music, family, and giving back.

What began as a simple celebration has grown into a year-round initiative. Founded by local artist Andria Shinn three years ago, Shinn Dig now supports a wide range of creative and educational efforts in the community. With a strong commitment to original music and artist development, the event has become a platform for both youth and adult musicians to grow, collaborate, and be heard.

Through initiatives like Salt Marsh Kids, songwriting retreats, production workshops, and collaborative live performances, Shinn Dig fuels creative growth for all ages. From hands-on training to performance development and recording opportunities, the festival’s mission reaches beyond one day — it’s about building long-term impact in the lives of musicians and the community that supports them.

Your support helps sustain this vision: to uplift original music, inspire young creators, and provide meaningful opportunities that strengthen our community through music, art, and connection.

At Shinn Dig 2026, you’ll get a taste of it all.
