WHAT TO EXPECT

Join us for a refreshingly fun-filled weekend at the South Florida Watermelon Festival, August 28th & 29th, 2027, in our new home at the air-conditioned Shiner Law Group Expo Center at the South Florida Fairgrounds in West Palm Beach!

Kids can bounce, climb, and slide through inflatable obstacle courses by FOMO Bounce, then enjoy bumper cars, wiggle racers, and unicorn ride-ons. Our Balloon Bubble Houses invite kids to play among floating balloons, while FOMO Playland offers fun especially for babies and toddlers—all in air-conditioned comfort!

Enjoy entertainment across two stages! Head to the Spotlight Stage for our live hypnotist show, with two performances each day, and Singo—a musical twist on bingo for up to 150 participants! Listen to song clips, mark matching titles on your card, and sing along as you play. Over at the Melon Stage, catch playful bubble shows and join the juicy fun of our watermelon-eating contests throughout the day.

Explore our dedicated shopping expo building for unique finds and specialty foods from local vendors. Pick up fresh, locally grown watermelons straight from the farm, and discover creative, delicious ways to enjoy watermelon, including specialty treats! Expo concessions will also be available whenever you’re ready for a bite.
