SnowFest 2024: A Winter Wonderland in Collier County!
Snow is in the forecast for Collier County this December, and it’s not just wishful thinking, it’s SnowFest! Bundle up with your hats and mittens, it's time to hit the snow slides and make unforgettable memories at Snowfest! Mark your calendars because the 40th annual Collier County SnowFest is set to take over Paradise Coast Sports Complex (PCSC) on Saturday, December 7, from 3:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.
Brought to life by the Paradise Coast Sports Complex, Collier County Parks & Recreation Division, and the Collier County Tourism Department, SnowFest is ready to deliver a winter wonderland experience right in the heart of Florida. This year kids of all ages will be astounded as the event promises to be bigger and better than ever.
Holiday Cheer for All Ages
SnowFest is brimming with activities and entertainment to kick off the holiday season. Live music will play throughout the day, adding to the festive atmosphere, while local vendors will offer everything from holiday treats to handmade crafts.
But the snow doesn’t stop there! Kids can enjoy numerous games, snow slides, RC cars, and experience a “holiday fun bounce land.” Santa Claus himself will be on-site, greeting children, taking photos, and spreading joy from his arrival all the way through the day’s festivities.
A Family-Friendly Holiday Movie Under the Stars
As night falls, the evening’s festivities will move to the PCSC Great Lawn, where a holiday movie will be shown at 7:30 pm on Southwest Florida’s largest 40 foot outdoor video screen. Families can bring a blanket, get cozy, and enjoy the holiday classic together under the stars. The movie is FREE of charge.
Admission and Location Details
Entry wristbands are $8 on the day of the event, and children ages 3 and under are free.
Paradise Coast Sports Complex is located at 3940 City Gate Blvd. N in Naples, FL, inside the City Gate development, just off State Road 951 and I-75.

Thanksgiving is arguably everyone’s favorite holiday and we’ve been blessed with much to be thankful for.
It has been three full years since Collier County entrusted The Sports Facilities Companies with the management of this wonderful Complex. We are Thankful to the County staff, particularly Marissa Baker and Kirk Peters, Tourist Development Council and Board of County Commissioners to allow us to live our mission of improving the health and economic vitality of the community we serve.
We have reported annual increases in facility visitation as this facility grows, so we are Thankful for our guests, both local and regional and hopeful that we can continue this trajectory that can only be assisted by the potential future growth of the Complex to include another 10-12 multipurpose fields.
We are Thankful for our local programming groups who also call this place home, these groups provide the energy that brings this place to life every night.
We are also Thankful for our event operators and organizers and corporate partners who see the vision of this facility and tell our story to bring thousands of visitors to Collier County. This includes the exciting addition of FC Naples, Collier County’s first professional sports team and I’m Thankful for Bob Moreno, Daniel and Mark Mildenberg for their vision and hard work in bringing the team to the Paradise Coast.
We are also Thankful for the support of the local hotelier community that provide high class accommodations to our visitors, and we recognize our responsibility to work with our event partners to put heads in their beds.
Finally, I am Thankful for my entire team here at Paradise Coast Sports Complex and the support team at SFC headquarters in Clearwater. None of the success we have enjoyed so far would be possible without them.
We move into an incredibly busy December, starting with SnowFest on the 7th and if you haven’t already experienced it, then I suggest you hop in your car and do a loop through the incredible Magic of Lights wonderland that is here through early January!
Next stop 2025!
