The Florida Strawberry Festival unveiled Wednesday morning the theme for the upcoming 2019 event: “It’s a Hit!”
This year’s theme goes all-in on baseball, with festival mascot Mr. Berry wearing a Florida Strawberry Festival-branded ball cap, holding a bat in one hand and a strawberry shortcake in the other.
“It's a team effort," president Paul Davis said. "Our team of volunteers, vendors, exhibitors and sponsors create an all-star lineup that is sure to please. We pitch only the best to our guests in hopes that they have a ball with their loved ones at the 2019 Florida Strawberry Festival."
The Florida Strawberry Festival will run from Feb. 28, 2019 through March 10, 2019 and its official social media hashtag is #berryfest19.
"From the headline entertainment hits on the Wish Farms Sound Stage to the sweetest hit, our world-famous strawberry shortcake," Davis said, "we're sure to knock this one out of the park.”
