Today is the day that music fans have been waiting for! Florida Strawberry Festival has announced the upcoming concert schedule for March’s event, and boy is it jam-packed with huge names!

For country music fans like myself, this rollout list has made some people’s Monday, for sure. Though about five months away, plans are already swirling in this blogger’s mind as to where to stay during the festival: camp or hotel?

The strawberry festival is home to great live music, but is also jam-packed with a variety of other activities, so keep an eye out for an upcoming blog on the non-music fun to be had at the festival.

Tickets go on sale Thursday, December 7 at 8 a.m. and can be purchased through their website, over the phone at 813-754-1996 or in person at the Amscot Main Ticket Office at 2209 W. Oak Avenue in Plant City.
