The lit garland strands were hung up with care by over 160 GaYBOR Coalition members and city workers volunteering their time decorating all along the Nationally famous Ybor streets. The big lighting ceremony of the Central Districts 34' Holiday Tree in Centro Ybor was setup, lit and witnessed by thousands. There was a Juried Art Festival in the Park bringing in new visitors to Centennial Park and 25 cent TECO Streetcar rides offered for families to ride clanking along the historical waterfront and Channelside Districts. A big unleashed holiday spectacular was around the corner though. "SNOW IN YBOR CITY" was experienced by the many thousands of visitors. It happened all along 7th Ave between 15th and 17th Streets, with the surprise appearance of Santa Claus on the Ybor City Fire truck.

Cupids love arrows hits many at strange times and places. It is as big as Christmas, but you don't have to worry about the stores cramming Holiday music and decorations down your throat or making you guilty of not spending enough on gifts. Valentine's Day is the day you share with your partner and give personal, intimate gifts like delectable Belgium chocolates, hot fantasy underwear, sparkling jewelry or go out to eat at a restaurant you'd normally not think about going to. All for love! We carry those special eclectic fun gifts for your new or happy longtime love at the official crazy Ybor City spot, MC FILM.
