NAPLES EVENTS :: & Cancellations

 

Covid has been the culprit of many disappointing cancellations - graduations, weddings, funerals, family reunions. It's been a bleak year.  We have seen some cancellations for the upcoming Season, and many events are still on the books. Here's a current look at our events for this winter in Naples.                                                     CANCELLED Everglades City Seafood Festival This popular event takes place every February in Everglades City and it has already been cancelled for February 2021. _____________________________________________________________________________ CANCELLED Paradise Coast Food and Wine Fest This popular event takes place in Cambier Park and features wine and special dishes from the best chefs in Naples. Scheduled for Nov. 21 - now cancelled. Organizers are hoping to bring the event back in November 2021.        ___________________________________________________________________________ CANCELLED Farm City BBQ  This long time community event takes place every year on the day before Thanksgiving. This would be the 65th anniversary of the event, which is now on hold until November 2021. The event brings together 3000+ people and organizers felt the risk was too high this year.             ______________________________________________________________________ STILL ON THE SCHEDULE Swamp Buggy Races And you thought Florida didn't have its own culture.
