Clewiston Sugar Festival With Doodie Calls

The sugar high of a lifetime is waiting for you at this year’s Clewiston Sugar Festival. This festival was modeled after the U.S Sugar Corporation’s end-of-harvest celebration. It was a way to express gratitude and celebrate successful crops.

How It All Started 

In April, when the last truckload of cane was processed, the sugar grinding mill was cleaned and tables were set up for a BBQ. Families and workers gathered, and a formal dance was conducted that night in the company-owned Sugarland Auditorium. 

Lastly, locals vote for their king and queen of sugar in the miss sugar pageant. Members of the Clewiston Merchant Association proposed the idea to keep these events city-wide in 1986. This event would display the town and give thanks to the sugar industry, which serves as their economic foundation.

Clewiston Sugar Fest Now 

This city’s rich heritage of sugarcane cultivation has a great calendar of events

  • Food Sellers
  • Cane grinding exhibitions
  • An antique tractor display that was during harvesting. 

Once you’ve had your sugar high, you’ll be able to expend your energy on gator wrestling and enjoy some amazing live music. Due to the success of previous events, the activities calendar has grown to include much more. 

  • A rodeo to honor our town’s cowboy heritage
  • Bass competition to highlight our natural beauty known as Lake Okeechobee
  • Seminole Heritage Day at the Clewiston Museum, which highlights on our community’s neighbors and collaborators, the Seminoles.
