Orlando Festivals Abound as We Head into March

Thursday February 28, 2008
We start March with beautiful weather and definitely with some great festivals and annual events!

Starting off with first of the month events including; First Thursdays at the Orlando Museum of Art. This month’s theme is Beat-niks & Bongos: Abstract Art. Celebrate with themed art, friends, food and music at one of Orlando's largest after-work art parties. First Fridays at the Mall at Millenia. Free admission to this monthly outdoor concert series located at the main entrance to the mall.

Top picks for March would be the Florida Strawberry Festival in Plant City, the Home and Garden Show at the Orange County Convention Center and the Free Downtown Concert Series performance featuring Foreigner.

For the first time ever, Epcot’s International Flower & Garden Festival will be starting in March. Now in it’s 15th year, this annual event will run a record 75 days with performances by 22 different musical acts for their Flower Power Concert Series.
