Pasadena Strawberry Festival
Pasadena, Texas

The city of Pasadena, Texas may have relinquished its title as the "Strawberry Capital of The World," but the residents of the Lone Star state's 15th largest city still pay loving tribute to their favorite fruit with a fete that's a sweet treat for the entire family.

When: mid to late May

Where: Pasadena Fairgrounds, Fairmont Parkway at Red Bluff

Activities and Events: Be a part of history at the official cake cutting of the world's largest strawberry shortcake, a tasty way to mark the start of the festival. During the next three days, over 45,000 attendees cheer on participants of the mud volleyball tournament, washer pitching contest and the BBQ Cookoff, and clap to the beat of country, rock and Tejano tunes performed by artists on the International Main Stage. Festival-goers can get an overview of the carnival rides from the Ferris wheel, or opt for a bird's eye view of all the attractions on a helicopter ride.

Children's activities:
Cavorting clowns and free games will bring a smile to the faces of tiny Texas tykes inside the Strawberry Fields Children's Pavilion, where little ones can love the llamas, goats and baby bunnies at the petting zoo, promenade around a ring on a pony ride and dance to ditties played by Radio Disney.
