Beat the Heat and Enjoy Refreshing Family Fun at Keel Farms Annual Watermelon Weekend

Take a bite out of summer and cool off at Watermelon Weekend where waterslides, cool beverages, tons of fun, and sweet treats beckon

PLANT CITY, Fla., June 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Keel Farms welcomes one and all to kick off summer at its annual Watermelon Weekend June 21 and 22, 2025. The fun-filled festival runs from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on both Saturday and Sunday at 5202 Thonotosassa Road in Plant City.

Enjoy a weekend filled with watermelon eating contests, food trucks, local vendors, kids' zones, bounce houses, farm fresh wine & ciders, and all things watermelon. Admission is free and parking is $10.

Bring a towel and make a splash. This year's Watermelon Weekend also offers waterslides for the whole family to enjoy.

"The addition of waterslides is going to make our Watermelon Weekend literally cooler than ever," said Clay Keel President of Keel Farms. "We're always looking for ways to create experiences that will become lasting memories and when we see returning visitors year after year, we know we're doing something right."  

Rather than traditional table service during the festival, visitors are invited to purchase food from convenient walk-up stations and enjoy open seating in the dining room, backyard, or on the patio. No reservations required.

Visitors can enjoy live music as well. Performances include fan favorite Jason Stallworth playing acoustic music from the eighties on the Garden Stage, and Tyler Dusek will headline the main stage "Jammin' on the Patio" with a mix of covers from the seventies and nineties, plus he'll play some of his own originals.

Watermelons will be available for purchase, along with a variety of watermelon treats.
