Corey Avenue

The charming Corey Avenue district is set to be transformed once again as the Corey Avenue Art &amp; Craft Festivals return for their 31st annual season. A beloved, long-running tradition, these popular, free events transform the heart of St. Pete Beach into a lively, open-air marketplace and a key economic driver for local shops and restaurants.
Hosted by the Corey Area Business Association (CABA), the multi-day festivals are a must-visit for art lovers, collectors, and anyone seeking unique, handcrafted treasures while supporting the historic district.
"For over three decades, the Corey Avenue Art &amp; Craft Festivals have been a cornerstone of our community, bringing world-class artistry right to our doorstep," said a representative from CABA. "We invite everyone to stroll the avenue, meet the talented makers, and, most importantly, support the diverse array of small businesses, boutiques, and locally owned restaurants that make Corey Avenue unique."
