Florida is known for many things, from tasty oranges and thrilling theme parks to year-round sunshine. The "Sunshine State" is also particularly famed for its string of seasonal festivals in all realms of art and culture. So if you're arranging a trip to Florida, it's worth looking into local events calendars for all the cities you plan to visit For instance, movie buffs visiting Fort Lauderdale won't want to miss out on the Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival hosted annually in October and November. Now in its 25th year, the festival showcases more than 200 films from all over the globe, ranging from independent films and documentaries to shorts and even children's films. The event is world renowned, and definitely worth putting on your agenda if you're planning to be in Fort Lauderdale during these months. The Florida State Fair is another major event, full of excitement for visitors and locals alike. Hosted by Tampa every February, the event features everything from rides and games to the best of fair food. It even includes an extensive line-up of music shows that are ideal for fair-goers of all ages. While many of Florida's festivals and seasonal events incorporate music in one form or another, countless events are dedicated solely to music. Miami's Winter Music Conference is just one of them, offering electronic music fans performances from some of the best DJ's in the world. The conference has been held every March since the mid 1980s and now showcases more than 500 events over a span of five days. It's also known to attract visitors from all over the globe, due to its high profile standing and world-class DJ performances. Of course, Miami isn't the only major city in Florida that hosts famed music events. Orlando is home to another major music festival, called the Florida Music Festival. A three-day springtime festival that started in 2002, the festival - held in Downtown Orlando - features national headliners, as well as unsigned talent. It is a highly anticipated annual event, and one that's not to be missed for springtime holidaymakers in Orlando. Just remember to book your Orlando hotels early, as springtime is a popular time to visit the city. So, why not enjoy more than just the sunshine in Florida? Research local festivals and events before travelling to the Sunshine State, and you're sure to get the most out of your Florida holiday.About the Author:
