WiLD Bunch Mornings

One great perk of living in Florida are the year-round festivities and there are some great festivals happening in Florida in March.

Florida is a state known for its great weather, beautiful beaches and lively atmosphere. Because of the warmth we’re lucky to have throughout the year, the Sunshine State is home to a variety of festivals. And there’s a lot to celebrate- everything from food and music to art and culture. There are people that come from all over the world to enjoy these festivals that provide an exciting and unique way to experience Florida’s rich diversity.

While during the summer there’s still plenty to do, prime festival season is during the “cooler” months. No matter what time of year it is, but especially from Fall-Spring, if you’re visiting Florida or a local looking for something to do, you don’t have to look too far. With March right around the corner, you might be starting to plan out your weekends. You’re in luck as there’s some great festivals happening around the state.
