Florida Strawberry Festival

The lineup includes Grammy Award-winning Christian music star Lauren Daigle, southern staple Lynyrd Skynyrd, and the Beach Boys.

While there's never been a Black Strawberry Queen, many women have worked to change that — for the festival as well as the city's Black history.

Get ready for all things strawberry at the annual Florida Strawberry Festival from Feb. 29 to March 10.

From The Beach Boys of coastal California to "Rich Men North of Richmond’s" Oliver Anthony, here’s a look at who’s headlining this year’s festivities.

This year's festival will be held Mar. 2-12, and will feature the signature headline musical acts along with rides and entertainment.

Vance Whitaker, with the UF/IFAS Gulf Coast Research and Education Center in Wimauma, discusses the science behind breeding the berries and offers insight into the … umm … field.

Also coming to Plant City for the annual event in March are Sara Evans, the Oak Ridge Boys, Tanya Tucker, Train, Keith Sweat and Wayne Newton. Advance tickets go on sale Dec. 8.

A new law that Gov. DeSantis signed this week at the Plant City Strawberry Fest designates strawberry shortcake as the official state dessert. That's leaving a tart taste in the mouths of Key lime pie backers.

The designation is an effort to promote the state's $1 billion strawberry industry.

Plant City was once known for producing lumber, cotton, citrus and cattle. Here's what changed.

But key lime could keep its title as the state pie.

A diverse lineup of headline musical acts returns to the Florida Strawberry Festival in 2022.
