The National Orange Show Shines This Weekend
May 27, 2011
Yesterday was opening day for the 96th annual Orange Show Festival. Citrus exhibits, freshly squeezed orange juice, foods of all varieties, games, rides, live entertainment and fun for all. Plus it seems that the event will escape the usual curse of rainy days as this weekend is predicted to be sunny and pleasant.
Record keepers say that the event started in 1911 and thus is 100 years old this year. However, the event was not held during World War II so this is the 96th happening.
Cost is $5 for general admission with children under 10 years and seniors 60 and older being admitted free of charge. The hours are 2 p.m. to 10 p.m. today, Friday and 10 a/m/ to 10 p.m. Saturday to Monday.
