Casselberry’s Earth Fest - Central Florida’s second largest environmentally friendly festival – takes place is on Saturday, April 29, 2023, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Lake Concord Park in Casselberry. The event coincides with the widely popular Cigar Box Guitar Festival, the first event of its kind in Central Florida.

The mission of the day is to bring awareness to protecting our environment, creating clean energy, and reducing our carbon footprint.  As part of this important mission, numerous fun activities will expand your mind through eco-friendly sights and sounds. The areas that will educate, encourage, and empower citizens to create a sustainable community include the Green Vendor Area, Entertainment Area, Food Area, and a Kids Zone. The event also celebrates Arbor Day, which is the last Friday in April each year. The Arbor Day Foundation has planted more than 350 million trees in neighborhoods, communities, cities, and forests throughout the world. In addition to over 75 product vendors, the Casselberry Art House will host the Recycled Art Exhibition, sponsored by the Rotary Club of Casselberry and Art Systems. There will be artists throughout the park showing off their work. At noon, the second annual Cigar Box Guitar Festival, which has been popular in New Orleans and other cities, makes its way back to Central Florida. The event is sponsored by the Orange Blossom Blues Society.
