Each year for the past four years, the Runaway Country Music Festival has taken place just 12 miles south of Cocoa Beach, 45 minutes east of Orlando, Florida. This occasion marks the largest gathering of country music stars in the state of Florida. The festival is three days of country music, dancing, and more. People come from far away, staying in tents, hotels, motels, RVs and campers, and just about any accommodation that can be found.
