Noche de Festival

Presented by Historic Florida Militia at Fountain of Youth Archaeological Park

Our week long celebration the “Festival de San Agustin” culminates with a party celebrating our founder’s 500th birthday, the “Noche de Festival”.  For many years the Menendez Gala was held to commemorate the occasion. With that in mind, the Historic Florida Militia, a 501-3c not-for-profit organization, wanting to keep both the City’s history and traditions alive, will host the “Noche de Festival”.  The party, on Saturday evening February 16, 2019, starting at 6:30pm, will be a spectacle of sights, and sounds and even tastes of the City’s Spanish heritage dating back to 1565.  This party, being held in the beautiful new Pavilion at the Fountain of Youth Archaeological Park, will feature Spanish Tapas and Sangria, traditional Spanish Music and entertainment, and a dinner of Spanish Paella cooked in big pans right in front of the guests.  The evening will end with dance music for everyone to party the night away.  Guests will be encouraged to wear their finest Renaissance clothing or their finest cocktail attire.  All this at a ticket price the average Saint Augustine resident could afford. ($50.00 per person) Let’s party like it’s 1565.  Tickets for the are now available at eventbite.com  “Noche de Festival”
