The Community Mural brings a hands-on art experience to the center of the festival, near the glam seating lounge. Stop by throughout the weekend to add your own splash of color to the giant collaborative mural with Phi Phi Artland. And along the bay on the northernmost end, Dockside Sessions, sponsored by Creative Pinellas, features Live Painting with Alyssa Marie and Zulu Painter.

Also at Dockside Sessions, you'll find live music throughout the weekend, alongside decorated boats. And there’s plenty more entertainment throughout the park. The Main Stage, on the bay side across from the Beer & Wine Garden, features live music all weekend with comedian Pat Largo emceeing. Just across from the Dockside Sessions, look up to catch aerialist Violet Sullivan twisting through the air on silks. And at the southern end of the park, KiddoPalooza offers free activities and appearances by Santa, princesses and even the Grinch.
