Florida’s own rising alternative force, DONEFOR, is proud to announce the inaugural Festival of Misfit Toys, a brand-new holiday-inspired music event created to bring the community together through music and giving. This FREE event will showcase some of Florida’s top independent acts while raising awareness and support for those in need during the holiday season.
The vision behind the Festival of Misfit Toys comes from DONEFOR’s frontman and festival founder, Parker Shogren, who shared:
“We had seen how much our music was able to impact others. So we thought, what if we collectively used that impact to help benefit the community? We were able to find a ton of GREAT bands that shared in that ideology and now we have this stacked lineup of the best independent bands in Florida with the driving force of charity uniting us.”
The festival is more than just another show—it’s a movement. By merging music with compassion, DONEFOR and their peers are proving that independent artists can make a major difference when they come together with a common purpose.
With a lineup packed with Florida’s best emerging talent, fans can expect an unforgettable night of high-energy performances, community spirit, and holiday goodwill. Attendees are encouraged to come ready to celebrate music, connection, and giving back this holiday season.
