Our fair (and oh-so-bold) city is encouraging local residents to celebrate 904 Day in the biggest way possible. For those new to the 904 scene — the area code spans nearly all of Northeast Florida, from Fernandina Beach to Downtown Jax to St. Augustine and beyond — 904 Day is observed annually on September 4 (9/04, get it?). Yes, Jacksonville has its own local holiday, and we are so here for it.

Eat (& Drink) Your Way Around Town
Northeast Florida is full of local spots for all the drinks, eats, and sweets! From family-friendly breweries to the best brunch spots and kid-friendly restaurants (where it’s truly okay to take your rambunctious three-nager), Jax is where it’s at when it comes to all you can eat… and drink… and eat some more. Got a sweet tooth? Join the club! Get your fix with our favorite donuts, ice cream parlors, and pie places, and don’t forget to rinse it all down with an awesome local cup of coffee (pumpkin spice, of course). Then leave the kids at home (er, with a sitter), and check out these delicious date night eateries and wineries.

Wanna go for a swim? We’ve got springs and natural watering holes galore, alongside all the splash pads and water parks so you can splash to your water-lovin’ heart’s content.
