Fridays to Sundays, February 7 – May 3 marks one of the tastiest times in Central Florida. The Seven Seas Food Festival at SeaWorld Orlando is one of my favorite events.

If you’ve never been to this festival, you have been missing out! Honestly, the food is amazing and they really give you a good sized portion. It’s not like other park festivals that give you a bite or two. It’s really worth it! The shows and animals you will see are a plus. And if you don’t eat or drink too much, they have the best coasters around! SeaWorld is a wonderful park and you’re going to have a great time at the Seven Seas Food Festival!
