The Fiesta of Five Flags celebrates the founding of Pensacola. In 1559, Spanish Conquistador, Don Tristan de Luna, established Pensacola as the first European settlement in the United States. Since that time five different flags have flown over the City: Spanish, French, British, Confederate, and American. A 10-day heritage celebration, held the first two weeks in June, is one of the oldest and largest heritage festivals in the State of Florida.
So come visit Pensacola, the City of the Five Flags, and enjoy our beautiful gulf atmosphere. Soccer and beautiful beaches!
