One of my most favorite events is the Annual Flamingo Festival that takes place in Southwest Harbor in July and turns the town absolutely pink! This year the Festival will take place July 12-14.

This year's theme is "Shake Your Tail Feathers, it's our Diamond Jubilee" as the Harbor House is celebrating their 60th year of service to the communities of Southwest Harbor and Tremont.

To sign up for the parade click HERE. The parade will take place on Saturday, July 12th The parade will begin at 9:20 a.m. on July 12th and lineup takes place 8:30-9 a.m.

Registration for the Craft Fair is open and available HERE
