with hands-on amazements from ceiling to floor!
With more than 40 fun stops you’ll explore,

Come tinker and doodle, experiment and explore,
at this whimsical festival—who could ask for more?

Join us as we navigate the past, uncovering the stories, artistry, and traditions that have shaped seafaring legends and coastal culture. Recognized as one of the Gulf Coast’s premier family events, the festival offers an unforgettable experience with live entertainment on indoor and outdoor stages, over 40 interactive activity booths, and hands-on exhibits that bring history and creativity to life.
