Important Event Update

Dear Skyway Social Attendees,

We are writing to share some difficult news regarding Skyway Social, originally scheduled for Saturday, October 3.

After extensive planning and logistics evaluations, this year's Skyway Social has been canceled.

Our primary promise has always been to deliver a seamless, high-quality event centered around the unique experience of riding the Skyway through the core of Jacksonville. Due to recent system constraints and reduced Skyway train availability, full rail service to meet the needs of our crowds will not be operational on our event date. While alternative transit measures, including ground shuttle buses and trolleys, were offered to bridge service gaps, those options would fundamentally change the experience at the heart of Skyway Social.

Ultimately, we do not feel confident that these operational limitations would allow us to deliver the event as it was designed and as our guests have come to expect. Rather than move forward with an experience that no longer reflects the vision of Skyway Social, we believe the most responsible decision is to pause for this year.

We are extremely grateful for the dedicated support of our partners and the countless people who have poured their hard work into this event over the past two years to make it happen. While this chapter is closing, our commitment to downtown Jacksonville remains unchanged. We look forward to returning with fresh ideas that continue serving our purpose of placemaking, bringing our community together for the world-class experiences our city deserves.

- Automatic Processing: You do not need to take any action. All ticket purchases will be refunded in full.
