Tallahassee scored a 20.5 on someoneβs βboring scaleβ? Clearly, they`ve never been here, so weβll let the views speak for themselves.
Here in Floridaβs Capital City, weβre a college town thatβs home to more than just history and world-class arts and culture. πποΈ
Weβve got 700+ miles of trails π₯Ύ, award-winning craft breweries π», nationally recognized parks ποΈ, and a dining scene that`s second to none. π½οΈπ₯
With dazzling entertainment πΆ, vibrant family-friendly festivals π¨βπ¨βπ§βπ¦, attractions that spark curiosity π¦₯, and so much more, we are anything but boring.
And weβre just getting started. In 2026, weβll host the World Athletics Cross Country Championship welcoming elite athletes from over 60 nations to our legendary Apalachee Regional Park. π ππΌββοΈπ
