Running all season

These holiday listings open in November and run into December or January, so they are not tied to one weekend. The dates show the full season, so check the organizer’s page for which nights they are open.

Before you go: a short checklist

  • Open the event’s website the week you go. Each listing page links to it, and organizers post hours and updates there.
  • Check which days are event days. Some listings here cover a long span, such as Pensacola Interstate Fair (October 22 - November 1), Hillsborough County Fair (November 5 - 15) and Jacksonville Fair (November 5 - 15). Our listings show the full span, so check the organizer’s page for the exact days.
  • Add it to your calendar. Every USA Fest Bot listing page has an “Add to calendar (.ics)” link, and most have a map link.
