The Community
Voted Best Historic Small Town for 2018 by USA Today,
the City has long welcomed visitors. The historic Sponge Docks are a working waterfront and tribute to Greek immigrant culture. Downtown boasts restaurants and shops just two blocks away from the Park. Surrounding the Festival is a neighborhood with old Florida ambience: brick streets, Victorian mansions and intimate bungalows.
