Underbelly
Located in the heart of Downtown, in Jacksonville's "Elbow District", Underbelly isn't just a building and a stage where people come to enjoy music. It's much bigger than that. It's not the paint on the walls. It's not the brick, wood, and nails that hold it all together. It's not the lights or the electricity that define it. Underbelly is a garden. A place for people, regardless of who you are or what you do, to just leave it all at the door for a small while. It's a place for humans. People wanting to be just that. Surrounded by others that feel the same to come together for however long it may be, to be here and now - no more, no less. It's a place where the best musicians unite to create moments that exist nowhere else. Isn't that what it is all about? Finding those moments of magic that will stay with you forever? Well, that's what we sell. We sell magic in all sizes. So come with many, come with none, it doesn't matter. Because when you're here, you're home.

OVERVIEW
Get ready for an unforgettable adventure as we embark on a road trip from the bustling streets of New York to the tranquil shores of Lakeland. Our journey will take us through a tapestry of landscapes, from towering skyscrapers to rolling hills and shimmering waters. Along the way, we'll unravel the rich history and culture that defines this incredible country.
As we leave the concrete jungle behind, we'll be greeted by the picturesque countryside of Pennsylvania, its rolling hills adorned with vibrant farmland and charming towns. We'll traverse the mighty Ohio River, a symbol of the nation's industrial heritage, and delve into the heart of the Midwest with its vast cornfields and friendly communities.
Our final destination, Lakeland, awaits with its serene lakes, lush parks, and welcoming atmosphere. Whether you're seeking relaxation or adventure, this charming city offers something for every traveler. Its historic downtown, lined with quaint shops and inviting cafes, invites you to explore its rich past. And as the sun dips below the horizon, casting a golden glow over the tranquil waters, you'll know that you've experienced a truly unforgettable journey.
