Brooksville Native American Festival

The Brooksville Native American Festival has been awarded a Top Twenty Events Winner by the Southeast Tourism Society. Our mission is to provide hands-on education and entertainment for all ages, as well as authentic programs and vendors to keep our visitors engaged. We want the entire family to be caught up in Native culture from start to finish.

The family-friendly Brooksville Native American Festival will feature a full roster of non-stop entertainment acts both Saturday and Sunday that include music, dance, primitive skills demonstrations and more! Learn to build fire the primitive way. Listen to traditional Native American music. Watch ancient traditional Polynesian dancers. Visit an actual teepee. Shop for authentic handmade native arts and crafts and much more!

NEW FOR 2019:
Red Boyz Drum: The Red Boyz Drum are back. Experience the beauty, pageantry and color of traditional Native dances, feel the beat of the drum and join them in a social dance

Cody Blackbird Band: Raw, honest, organic, indigenous. The Cody Blackbird Band sets themselves apart from many of the pop-rock Indie bands that are in the musical marketplace today. Indigenous (Dakota, Cherokee, Romani gypsy) brothers Cody and Caleb Blackbird set out to form a group that honors the sacred music of their ancestors, while infusing the revolution of rock and R&B into their unique style. Utilizing the haunting sound of the traditional Native American wooden flute and hide skin drum, Cody has become the Pied Piper for a new generation of listeners, while his brother Caleb keeps the heartbeat of the pow-wow inside all of their songs.

No Ka Oi Polynesian Dancers: Joining us this year will be the No Ka Oi Polynesian Dancers. You don’t want to miss this exciting and fun exhibition of traditional island dancing, who knows you might even get to do the hula.
