Fort Myers Beach - 25th Annual American Sandsculpting Championships

The 2011 American SandSculpting Championship & Beach Festival continues its tradition as one of the most popular, family-friendly events in Florida -- attracting an estimated crowd of 50,000 attendees -- over the 5-day event..

The 25th Annual American SandSculpting Championship & Beach Festival looks to be the best ever. The annual event, now in its 25th year, owes much of its success to Southwest Florida's abundant natural resources -- particularly the soft, sugar-white sands of Fort Myers Beach -- which are considered the best in the world for sand sculpting events.

The 2011 American SandSculpting Championship & Beach Festival will feature sixteen of the world's best Master Sculptors, along with Florida State and Amateur Sculptors. These performing artists will unite on Fort Myers Beach -- November 2nd - 6th to create their imaginatively stunning works of art from the fine, sugar-white sand of Fort Myers Beach.

The winning sculptor from the 25th Annual American SandSculpting Championship & Beach Festival earns an automatic invitation to the World Championships.
