One combined calendar. Every band, every venue, every night — Labor Day through New Year’s Eve, from Deerfield Beach down to Hollywood.
Season starts here. The snowbirds land, the touring routes swing south, and between Revolution Live, Culture Room, Hard Rock Live, the Broward Center, The Parker, the Pompano Amp and about thirty bars that book bands seven nights a week, there is live music in Broward County every single night between now and New Year’s. Below is every confirmed show we could verify, merged into one date-by-date list. Ticketed shows link straight to tickets. Everything else links to the venue’s schedule. Every band and every venue we could verify is tagged — follow them, they’re the ones playing your town.
The nights everything else works around
Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show — Oct 28–Nov 1. The 67th annual, across seven waterfront venues: the Broward County Convention Center, Bahia Mar, Hall of Fame Marina, Las Olas Marina, Pier Sixty-Six and the Superyacht Village. Wed noon–7, Thu–Sat 10–7, Sun 10–5. There’s no headline concert stage this year — the music lives inside the Windward VIP Experience ($459/day), which runs lounges at the Superyacht Village and the newly relocated Cabana Club at Bahia Mar with music and pop-ups at both, connected by water taxi. @flibsofficial · Tickets →
Seminole Hard Rock Winterfest Boat Parade — Sat, Dec 12. The 55th anniversary, themed “Party In The U.S.A.,” and this year it’s the official grand finale of Fort Lauderdale’s America 250 celebration. Preshow 5:30 p.m., parade and fireworks from 6 p.m., twelve miles up the New River and Intracoastal from downtown to Lake Santa Barbara. Free from any public shoreline; ticketed for the Las Olas Parade Viewing Area and the VIP party at Tunnel Top Park. Grand Marshal not announced yet. @winterfestinc · All Winterfest events →
64th Annual Christmas on Las Olas — Tue, Dec 1, from 5 p.m. Free, and the biggest free holiday event in Broward County. Thirty-plus schools and choirs performing up and down Las Olas between 6th and 11th, plus Snow Mountain. @lasolasblvd
Brazilian Festival South Florida — Sat, Oct 17, from 1 p.m., Quiet Waters Park, Deerfield Beach. The 18th edition and the biggest ticketed music festival in the window that isn’t on a boat. Latin Grammy nominee Paula Lima, plus Negritude Junior and Forrómeno, with capoeira, a carnival parade and a full Brazilian food village. From $20. Tickets →
Downtown Countdown — Thu, Dec 31, 4:30 p.m.–1 a.m. Free street festival at SW 2nd Street and SW 5th Avenue, live music after dark, anchor drop at midnight. Headliner not announced yet.
About Riptide: there is no 2026 Riptide Music Festival. The Fort Lauderdale Beach festival — which ran as Audacy Beach Festival in 2021 and rebranded to Riptide for its December 2023 edition with The Black Keys and Jelly Roll — has not announced a date, lineup or venue for 2026, and it does not appear on Visit Lauderdale’s 2026 annual festival calendar alongside FLIBS, Winterfest and Tortuga. Treat it as dormant. And for anyone asking: Tortuga is a spring festival — the 2026 edition was April 10–12 and it’s already come and gone.

Planning notes
- Tickets. Revolution Live, Culture Room and Hard Rock Live sell through Ticketmaster; the Pompano Beach Amphitheater sells exclusively through AXS. Broward Center and The Parker sell through their own event pages. Pompano Beach Cultural Center and Ali Cultural Arts sell through pompanobeacharts.org — Soulful Sundays is online-only, no door sales. Most bar shows are free.
- Free every time. Old Town Untapped and the Backyard Jam in Pompano · the Hollywood Beach Theatre bandshell, five nights a week · Sunday Jazz Brunch at Esplanade Park · the whole Light Up the Holidays series · Christmas on Las Olas · Winterfest from any public shoreline · Downtown Countdown on New Year’s Eve · Arts Launch Broward · Day of the Dead at Revolution’s Backyard · and Galuppi’s Thursday-through-Sunday patio shows.
- Two rooms, one night, more than once. Oct 10 is a genuine pile-up: Ricky Martin at Hard Rock Live, Tito Nieves at the Broward Center, Eva Ayllón in Davie and an all-night goth festival at Stache. Dec 5 is worse — Dionne Warwick, Samantha Fish, Silvestre Dangond and Messiah all at once. Buy early.
- Galuppi’s calendar paginates. The first page stops in early October. Click through to page 2, 3 and 4 for the rest of the year. They also hadn’t posted Dec 23–31 as of press time, New Year’s Eve included — worth a re-check in November. And they don’t publish set times, so call 954-785-0226 before you plan a night around one.
- Confirm before you drive. This calendar reflects published schedules as of early September 2026. Fall bookings move, and the smaller rooms add shows on a week’s notice. A few things we flagged along the way: In Flames and Samantha Fish at Culture Room and Silvestre Dangond at Hard Rock were confirmed through the promoters but hadn’t hit the venue sites yet; the Deerfield Beach Ocean Way Holiday, the Pompano Chamber holiday boat parade and Hollywood’s Candy Cane Parade all run annually but have no confirmed 2026 date published, so we left them off rather than print last year’s.
Playing a show we missed? Send us your schedule and your handle and we’ll add you.
