The ninth annual Purple Hatter’s Ball will take place is usual setting at the Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park in Live Oak, Florida on June 17-19. The three-day festival helps benefit nonprofit organization the Rachel Morningstar Foundation. This year’s festival is in honor of longtime SOSMP friend Rachel Morningstar Hoffman.

Purple Hatter’s Ball is a laid-back intimate event, which makes it the perfect way for one to experience the Spirit of the Suwanee Park festival grounds. SOSMP is also famous for hosting other notable events including Hulaween, Wanee and Aura. Fans attending the festival are encouraged to take advantage of all the park has to offer. Festivalgoers can swim, play disc golf, canoe, kayak and go biking. The event also features yoga, live art and many workshops. SOSMP also provides fans attending the comforts of a general store, showers, water stations and a full-service restaurant.

Fans can see bands on three different stages throughout the park. Stages include the park’s famed Amphitheater Stage, a Beach Stage along the Suwannee River and a Campground Stage, which transforms into a silent disco late into the night.

Every year, Hoffman’s mother Margie Weiss (aka Mama Margie), leads a ceremony celebrating Hoffman’s memory. Weiss releases 24 monarch butterflies — 23 to represent Hoffman’s age when she passed, and one for her spirit that still lives on. Hoffman was murdered while acting as a police informant during a drug sting in 2008.
