Performance

Come out to City Place in Downtown West Palm Beach for an afternoon of FREE fun.  There’s a surprise for kids at the City Place plaza monthly. They can enjoy music, exhibits, bounce houses, face painting, characters and crafts.  Meanwhile adults can find special bargains in shops and restaurants.

The city of West Palm Beach Department of Parks and Recreation hosts family-friendly concerts featuring diverse artists at the Waterfront in West Palm Beach every 3rd Sunday of the month. Details on the schedule can be found on the city's website. Concerts are free of charge! Bring your own seating and perhaps some snacks to enjoy. Kids will enjoy dancing about in the lush open greens. Enjoy performances by the likes of Tito Puente, Kris Allen and the Spam Allstars!

Every 3rd Friday of the month the City of West Palm Beach hosts a free Jazz performance at the Centennial Square Park.  The diverse performances range from Flamenco Jazz Fusion to the soulful Nicole Henry.  Bring blankets and chairs to enjoy this free concert.  The Centennial Fountains are a popular and fun way to keep the little ones occupied while the grown folks enjoy the music.  

This wonderful Annual Street Painting Festival in Lake Worth is an event to visit twice!  Come on Saturday and watch as the art starts on the asphalt then return on Sunday to see the finished projects. This is one of the largest chalk art festivals in the nation. The streets close and the artists get down and dirty with pastels developing very complex works of art. It is truly amazing to watch the process of how these works are done.

Enjoy 3 days of sand sculpting on Lake Worth Beach.  You can come on the first day and return on subsequent days to watch the art progress.  This beachside event will have a Lil Guppies area so that little kids can create their own inspired art, live music and a Seafood Festival.  

From November thru February, Lake Worth hosts concerts and other activities beachside with a lifegaurd monitored bonfire. Bring the kids and enjoy roasting marshamallows, running along the beach, or dancing to the music. Glow in the dark sticks and bright clothing are a good idea just in case the kids run away from the bonfire's light (the water is right there). There is lighting along the walkways but not on the beach itself. Check the city's Special Events page to find out details for each Friday.

This is a family friendly way to spend New Year's Eve in Delray Beach.  First Night is a family friendly evening filled with music, dancing, interactive games and a variety of performances.  NEW for 2016: Event is free but certain activities will cost a fee (ice skating, carousel, etc).  The entire event will be at Old School Square not at different locations.

Holiday Extravaganza is sponsored each year by the Boynton Beach CRA.  Come out with friends and family to enjoy several wonderful holiday events!  Come for the PARADE at 4pm and stay for the annual tree lighting ceremony and concert.  Holiday 2017 celebrates the season Saturday, December 2nd at 5:30 pm as this tradition continues for the 47th year to provide a magical experience for the entire family.
