Gulfport GeckoFest
Beach Boulevard, historic waterfront district, Gulfport, FL
A free street festival in the small waterfront city of Gulfport celebrating its unofficial mascot, the gecko, born in 2001 as a replacement for a disappointing fireworks show. The festival features costumed performers, live music, and craft vendors along Beach Boulevard and marked its 25th anniversary in 2025.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
