Seminole Tribe of Florida

Seminole Tribe of Florida hosts its annual Seminole Tribal Fair & Pow Wow each February. This celebration of Native culture and arts will be held at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino property owned by the tribe.

The challenge of maintaining the unique Seminole culture while operating in the mainstream economy is the priority for today’s Seminole Tribe of Florida. The descendants of Osceola, Jumper, Micanopy, and Sam Jones have come a long way since the bullets stopped flying a century ago. These days, the battleground is often a courtroom, where the Seminole Tribe has proved a vigorous defender of its sovereignty. The proud, “unconquered” Seminole Tribal community remains, as always, a valuable legacy of Florida’s rich and diverse heritage and a national leader among American Indian tribes striving for self-reliance.
