St. Pete's largest showcase of local businesses! It's more than a festival, it's a (local) vibe! Valentine's Day (2.14.26) & biggest ever!
Keep Saint Petersburg Local is proud to bring back LOCALTOPIA to Williams Park for its 13th year! | Our 2026 festival will be our biggest one EVER as we're adding one more street, AND it's taking place on Valentine's Day! Be a part of the greatest outpouring of #LocalLove on this super special day! | LOCALTOPIA is St. Pete’s largest “Community Celebration of All Things Local” showcasing *OVER* 300 of our city's favorite independent businesses and community organizations. * More than a festival, it's a (local vibe)! | Voted "BEST FREE COMMUNITY EVENT" (2025) in St. Pete Life Magazine's "Readers Choice Best of Awards" | Voted “BEST MAKERS FESTIVAL" (2023) in Creative Loafing's "Best of the Bay" | Voted "BEST FESTIVAL” two years in a row in the Tampa Bay Times' “Best of the Best” Awards and nominated for "BEST FESTIVAL" by Visit St. Pete/Clearwater! We’re honored that LOCALTOPIA has also been declared “The Event of the Year,” has been referred to as “the most St. Pete-esque event a resident or visitor can attend," and many have called it *THE* best event ever in St. Pete!
This FREE* family-friendly festival also commemorates KSPL's 14-Year Anniversary. * Please consider throwing something into the tip jars at the "Local Thirst Stations" to support LOCALTOPIA!*
LOCALTOPIA has NOT been a pet-friendly event since 2016 due to large crowds. Please DO NOT bring your furry friends! We want to ensure that they (and our human friends) stay safe, so we request that you *PLEASE LEAVE PETS AT HOME.* Thanks for your cooperation!
