About St. Augustine Francis Field
St. Augustine Francis Field is a long-standing open-air event space in the heart of historic downtown St. Augustine. Known for hosting festivals like the Sing Out Loud Festival, Celtic Music & Heritage Festival, and the St. Augustine Lions Seafood Festival, this field blends heritage with modern event needs. With its central location at 25 W. Castillo Drive, the venue offers a flexible setting suitable for a range of performances and community gatherings.
As with many downtown venues, seating is event-dependent, and there isn’t a fixed on-site capacity published. Historically, the site served as a baseball field with approximately 2,700–3,000 capacity in earlier decades, but current capacity varies by event, layout, and stage configuration. If you’re securing tickets, you’ll want to confirm the seating and viewing options with the event promoter or venue host when you purchase.
Parking is not available on-site. The adjacent Historic Downtown Parking Facility provides about 1,200 spaces at City rates, though spaces can fill up quickly during busy events. Plan extra time for arrivals, especially on festival weekends. Transit options include city shuttle/park-and-ride arrangements for larger festivals, and many guests opt to walk or bike from nearby hotels and eateries in downtown St. Augustine.
Nearby hotels and restaurants offer convenient options for lodging and dining. For a smooth experience, consider trusted local partners for accommodations and meals.
