The 50th Annual Mainsail Art Festival will be held in St. Petersburg’s waterfront Vinoy Park on April 5th and 6th, 2025. Mainsail Art Festival is one of the premier cultural events on St. Petersburg’s outdoor calendar. Each year, more than 100,000 visitors attend the festival to enjoy and purchase quality art and to listen to live musical entertainment.

Saint Petersburg’s downtown renaissance has transformed the city’s bay front into a cultural and entertainment destination. Mainsail’s picturesque home in Vinoy Park is easily one of the most magnificent waterfront art festival venues in the country. Vinoy Park is surrounded by upscale residences, in a city rich in art museums  (the Dali Museum, the Museum of Fine Arts, and the James Museum of Western and Wildlife Art), unique galleries and the Warehouse Arts District. Charming shops, casual outdoor dining at sidewalk cafes and the nearby Sundial entertainment complex all beckon savvy and well-versed art collectors who look forward each year to enjoying the best fine arts and fine crafts exhibited by artists from around the country. Delectable food from local restaurateurs, smooth jazz, country and pop entertainment, along with creative art activities for kids, makes this two-day celebration one of the bay area’s most eagerly anticipated events.
