The Citrus County Chamber of Commerce produces three festivals a year:
The Florida Manatee Festival along with the Rotary Club of Crystal River. The Chamber also produces the Floral City Strawberry Festival and the Mermaids & Margaritas Festival, all held in beautiful Citrus County.
The Florida Manatee Festival is a combination of Fine Arts and Crafts, Business Marketplace, live music on 3 stages, a beer & wine garden, kid zone with activities, 2 food courts & more. Free parking & shuttle service and free bus tours of Three Sisters Springs too! Boat tours are available for a small fee to see the world-famous Manatees in their natural environment. Always held the weekend before MLK Day in January.
The Floral City Strawberry Festival is a salute to local agriculture. Fresh strawberries from local grower Ferris Groves are available for purchase. Free parking & shuttle buses will get you there in time to oin us for the Little Miss and the Miss Strawberry Princess pageants, the ever popular and extremely messy pie-eating contests as well as 2 kid zones and nearly 300 booths filled with craft artists, local non-profits and commercial vendors. Also to be noted, are 2 food courts, a beer & wine garden and a VIP tent option. Always the first full weekend in March.
