Localtopia 2025 – St. Pete’s Biggest Local Festival Returns February 22!

At Jules Transactions, we’re all about supporting local businesses, celebrating community, and making sure St. Pete’s heartbeat stays strong. That’s why we’re beyond excited for the return of Localtopia 2025—a festival that embodies everything we love about our city!

On Saturday, February 22, 2025, Williams Park will transform into a vibrant hub of local vendors, artists, musicians, and food trucks—all coming together for a day of community, culture, and resilience. Whether you're a longtime St. Pete local or just discovering our city’s magic, this is the can’t-miss event of the year!

What is Localtopia?

Simply put, Localtopia is more than a festival—it’s a movement. Organized by Keep Saint Petersburg Local (KSPL), this event has spent over a decade spotlighting the best of St. Pete’s independent businesses. From handmade crafts to gourmet eats, this is where you experience the true spirit of our local economy.

But this year, Localtopia carries even greater significance. Many of our beloved small businesses are still recovering from recent hurricanes and economic setbacks. By showing up, shopping local, and celebrating our community, you’re helping fuel St. Pete’s resilience.
