Mount Dora Spring Festival

The Mount Dora Spring Festival of Arts and Crafts was originally known as the Mount Dora Antique Show that took place in conjunction with the Antique Boat Show on the shores of Lake Dora in March.  This event was created in 1997 to draw people attending the Boat Show into town to help the downtown businesses. When the boat event moved to nearby Tavares, FL the event evolved into the Spring Collectibles and Crafts Show. Today the event has no antique or collectible dealers. It features all hand craft items and original art but still draws thousands of people to downtown Mount Dora,FL as was the original intent of the event organizers. The Mount Dora Spring Festival of Arts and Crafts is presented by Visit Mount Dora.
