Celebrate Caribbean Mangos

FLORIDA, USA

Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden is excited to announce its 15th annual Mango Festival this year celebrating the Mangos of the Caribbean.

Just in time for the mango harvest, the Festival will take place Saturday, July 14 and Sunday, July 15 from 9:30a.m. to 4:30p.m. The Festival will feature everything for the mango lover—mango tree sales, mango lectures, a mango auction, displays of more than 200 mangos from Fairchild nurseries, a children’s program that includes a mango puppet show, mango theater, food demonstrations and a spectacular mango brunch. All children dressed in pirate costumes get in free! And don’t miss out on the Pirates Ball on July 13—it’s sure to be a swashbuckling good time!
