The Pensacola Foo Foo Festival is returning bigger and better than ever in 2023 as it announces its 10 Year celebration. On Monday, February 6, 2023 at 10:30 a.m., the Foo Foo Fest committee will conduct an in-person kickoff meeting to review the plans for this year’s festival, including important grant application information. This year’s 12-day series of events is scheduled to take place November 2 – 13, 2023.
After an incredibly successful Foo Foo in 2022, featuring milestone events such as the 50th Anniversary of the Great Gulfcoast Arts Festival, the 40th Anniversary of the Pensacola Opera and the 10th Anniversary of the LGBTIA+ Stamped Film Festival among other acclaimed grant-funded events, Foo Foo Fest 2023 will mark the celebration of 10 years of the highly-anticipated annual arts & culture event. The invitation to join this year’s kickoff meeting is open to all nonprofits, prior participants, local-to-Pensacola community groups, local and regional arts organizations, businesses, hoteliers, and musicians that are interested in learning how to participate in Foo Foo Fest as a grant recipient and “Friend of Foo,” as well as media.
The kickoff meeting will take place in-person at Palafox House.
