Interactive Entertainment
Beyond the star of our festival, the STRAWBERRY, our event offers more fun and excitement including some unique interactive activities you can get involved in!
Soccer Collies!
The Floral City Strawberry Festival is happy to welcome back a fun and unique interactive entertainment addition with Soccer Collies! Kids of all ages (and even adults) won’t want to miss this fun and exciting attraction as the Soccer Collies take on festival attendees once an hour beginning at 9:45 a.m. Participants will line up in a circle around the trained dogs as they use their skills to score “goals”, pushing the ball outside of the human goalie line.
Think you have what it takes to take on the Soccer Collies? Join us at the Festival to find out! This is a free event to participate in.
