Are you in search of a lovely day of family-friendly fun in Orlando? If so, we think you should look into the 2018 Florida Kids and Family Expo! This event is designed to entertain children and inspire adults. Parents can attend to discover new ideas and opportunities for their family while their kids bounce, run, play, create, watch, eat and more. The Central Florida Kids & Family Expo will go down the weekend of August 18th and 19th. It is an indoor, air-conditioned event and tickets are intended for those three years old and up.
The expo features two main stages as well as an ariel stage and a wrestling stage. Featured performances include those by Gatorland, the Orlando Ballet, Little Michael Jackson, Victory Martial Arts, Medieval Times, Mad Science and many more. There will be over 150 exhibitors, many of whom will host prize drawings and giveaways. Food carts will be available with kiddie favorites like hot dogs and pizza, but you are also welcome to bring your own food as well.
