t was billed in 1985 as Sam Bailey’s way of giving back to the community.
The 29th annual Bailey Fest returns Oct. 26. The event at the shopping complex at the corner of Periwinkle and Tarpon Bay will feature live entertainment under a bigtop tent, games, food, vendor/sponsor booths, crowning of the Bailey Fest king and queen, other goodies that in past years have attracted several thousand visitors.
The event runs from noon through 4 p.m. Parking will be directed away from Bailey’s, as the lot will be roped off to accommodate Florida’s version of a fall festival. Bailey’s General Manager Richard Johnson said Bailey Fest in 1985 was the former co-owner’s opportunity to thank Sanibel, its customers, friends and merchants in the island.
