Check Out These 4 Florida Festivals

People from around the country flock to Florida looking for plenty of sunshine and outdoor activities every year. This spring, there are plenty of festivities coming back to cities across the state. If you can make it to any of these festivals, you’re going to need a reliable van rental from Carl’s Van Rentals.

1. Weeki Wachee Swamp Festival

Located just 45 minutes north of Tampa, FL, the Weeki Wachee Swamp Festival has brought nature enthusiasts and artists together for the past 30 years. Many parents and kids take this opportunity to harness their inner Swamp Thing by dressing up for the annual Swamp Monster costume contest. Take the entire family up to Spring Hill and enjoy this festival from March 4-6.

2. Festival of the Arts Boca

After a short break, the Festival of the Arts Boca is returning this year to Boca Raton. This year’s festivities run March 4-13 and feature an appearance from Terence Blanchard, the composer and trumpeter whose music has scored many of Stan Lee’s movies. Furthermore, you and the kids will also enjoy other performances from the American Ballet Theatre, jazz flutist Nestor Torres, and an opera concert featuring Larisa Martinez. 

3. St. Augustine Celtic Music & Heritage Festival

As Northeast Florida’s only St. Patrick’s Day celebration, the St. Augustine Celtic Music & Heritage Festival runs March 12-13. This fun-filled weekend is full of food, music, whisky tastings, and so much more! What better way to connect with your Irish heritage than by gathering the family together and browsing these streets?

4. Central Florida Fair

The Central Florida Fair has brought residents and visitors together for fun, food, rides, and games for over a century. For ten days, you and the family can enjoy all the festivities put on by Orange, Seminole, Volusia, Lake, Osceola, and Brevard counties. Additionally, this festival features aerial shows and a BMX bike derby.
