a day of outdoor community fun with live music, food booths,shopping
and plenty to keep the whole family busy. The festival unfolds in
the heart of historic Dade City and each year it gets bigger
and better!

wagon rides, antique cars and tractors, tasty kumquat dishes and
craft shows.
The Kumquat Festival celebrates the
harvest of kumquats, a sweet and sour fruit that is a member of
the citrus family. Kumquats are eaten skin and all and are a pleasant
addition to many dishes and desserts.
