The Burg’s beautiful globe rises once again, with a fresh new look courtesy of Ferg’s. The bar owners revealed the fully restored World Liquors sign on Facebook on August 6. The iconic black and white globe is framed with blue bars and Ferg’s written in bold red block lettering.
Ferg’s is hosting a party to celebrate its official return to the Sunshine City. On August 23, get out for the St. Pete Sign Raising Block Party from 5-11pm. The event will feature live music and giveaways. More event details are set to be revealed closer to the event.

The kitschy sign has been part of the the Sunshine City since 1961. In 2018, World Liquors was demolished and the future of the iconic sign was uncertain. Ferg’s owner Mark Ferguson purchased it at auction and has been hard art work bringing it back to life.
We’re glad to see it find a new home in the booming EDGE District.
