STARZ of Pensacola

Be Pensacola Famous!

Best known to the rest of the world for white sandy beaches and as one of the hottest tourist destinations along the Emerald Coast, Pensacola has an incredibly well-kept secret that just can’t stay hidden any longer! Known as “American’s First Settlement” when Spanish explorer Tristán de Luna founded the port in 1559, Pensacola has stood as a landmark of history and culture in Florida.

The legacy of Pensacola is no mystery, but from the streets of historic downtown and scenic views come the rising stars of the city.

Pensacola has a thriving community of locally owned and operated businesses. It is also home to many artists and authors gaining notoriety in their fields with new books, art installations, music… anything creative!

We want to celebrate the STARZ of Pensacola. These individuals have put their passions to the test and we believe they deserve some recognition in the spotlight. You’ll have a chance to say, “I knew them back before they were famous!”
