Try not to sneeze when you get there. Clearwater Beach welcomes back the Sugar Sand Festival where 14 world-class sculptors will turn the neighborhood’s hottest commodity (the sand, guys) into work that fits within this year’s theme: “SANDimals, An Animal Adventure.”
The festival kicks off Saturday, and runs 17 days. While you must buy tickets, there are free beach concerts, live music bars, cornhole, demonstrations and classes, fireworks, and more.
The Pier 60 Sugar Sand Festival runs seven days a week, April 8-24, on Clearwater Beach, and admission starts at $14. Children three and under get in free.
