The fest is a much-anticipated local tradition held annually at Loxley Municipal Park. Every year, visitors join us from all around the Southeast to enjoy the special events, music, crafts and, of course, the strawberry shortcakes. Another fest highlight is the traveling carnival featuring rides for all ages and midway games like ring toss and balloon pop with prizes ranging from stuffed animals to goldfish. Fair favorites like funnel cakes and roasted corn will among food options.
Free shuttle service is provided from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day, with picks-ups at the Baldwin County Board of Education Building located at 1901 B Ave. The fest began in 1987 and has grown from a few craft and food vendors to over 180 arts and craft exhibitors, and at least a dozen food vendors. But, of course, strawberry shortcake is still king!
