More than 70 lighted vendors, live music, miniature Winterfest train and special appearances from the Grinch for this special evening edition of Palafox Market at historic Plaza Ferdinand in Downtown Pensacola!

Friends of Downtown and Foo Foo Festival are bringing you the Magic Carpet, a 10,000 sq. ft. "living" outdoor mosaic suspended over Museum Plaza. It officially takes flight on Nov. 2, and the outdoor art exhibit is free to enjoy day and night!

Join us on Saturdays for the award-winning Palafox Market from 9am-2pm, rain or shine—named Florida's Best Farmers Market by Southern Living magazine. Shop for farm-fresh produce, plants, baked goods and more at the event that's consistently voted "Best Farmers Market" and "Best Free Thing to Do." 

One Friday evening each month, Palafox Street—one of America's "10 Great Streets"—closes at 5pm to traffic and transforms into an outdoor festival of art, music and food. Gallery Night is the perfect opportunity to experience downtown Pensacola's thriving art scene and eclectic mix of sights, sounds and flavors.

The votes are in, and Downtown Pensacola is celebrating its selection as Florida's Greatest Place. Great Places of Florida, an award program of the Florida Chapter of the American Planning Association, highlights Florida's great communities and the great people that comprise them.

Consistently named the top holiday event in Florida, Winterfest is a celebration of live performances and spectacular themed trolley rides throughout downtown Pensacola, along with the Grinch, Santa and his elves and a cast of your favorite holiday characters!
