With a family-friendly party atmosphere, more than 200 craft sodas to sample, craft beer & wine, live music and festive food, this is the fizziest festival in all of Florida.
The Sebring Soda Festival is a niche event It has and continues to garner local, state and national media attention due to the uniqueness of the event and the local Soda Shop that helped launch the idea. This media attention is part of what attracts people to the festival each year.
