Each year during the weekend closest to Valentine's Day, the Placencia Sidewalk Art Festival takes over the world famous Placencia Sidewalk, showcasing Belizean culture through a variety of mediums.
Local artisans decorate booths displaying their paintings, wood carvings, original jewelry, blown glass, baskets, handmade arts and crafts, painted signs, and ethnic clothing and bags, while musicians occupy other tents and share a variety of Belizean musical styles along the way.
