BELL TOWER INVITES THE COMMUNITY TO ITS SECOND ANNUAL ‘PUPCHELLA’ EVENT
Bell Tower, a landmark shopping, dining and entertainment destination centrally located in Fort Myers, Florida (https://www.belltowerfl.com), invites the community to its second annual “Pupchella” event this spring. Pupchella is a fun-filled music and arts festival that gives a nod to the ultra-popular west-coast Coachella festival while celebrating the local Fort Myers community’s love of pets. The event, to be held Saturday, March 1st, from noon to 3 p.m., will be located throughout the central plaza. Entertainment at Pupchella will include performances across three stages by popular local musicians, including The Freecoasters, The Lineup Duo, and The Island Doctor. There will also be an interactive art district, a zen chill zone, an activities area, photo ops and a Photo Magic photo booth, a balloon artist, a face painter, axe throwing by Chuck It Axes, and a festival vendor marketplace. This event is free of charge and open to the public. While no tickets are required to attend, guests are asked to consider either a sponsorship or donation; proceeds will benefit the Gulf Coast Humane Society, a no-kill animal welfare organization and longtime supporter of pet-themed activities at Bell Tower, including the center’s popular monthly Yappy Hour events. In addition to Pupchella, the center will also host the first annual “Nearly Spring Corvette and Open Car & Truck Show” from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the same day in the parking lot near DaRuMa Japanese Steak House; the event includes food specials, a 50/50 contest, prize drawings and awards with more than 100 trophies. Participants must register and pay a fee to take part in the show but attendance is free of charge and open to the public; for details, click here.
