Do you remember Floridaland? Whether you do or not, here is your chance to learn the story behind the famed “everything under the sun” roadside attraction that was located between Venice and Sarasota. The amusement park, which operated from 1964-1971, left area children, adults, and out-of-state tourists with countless cherished memories. Remember the deer park, can-can dancers, western shootouts, train rides, boat tours, or the renowned porpoise shows?
Come join the fun and rediscover what made Floridaland so special to so many people during the pre-Disney era of roadside attractions!
