Each summer, the City of Fort Lauderdale Parks and Recreation Department proudly presents the Bank of America Starlight Musicals concert series. For 42 years, these free outdoor concerts have provided a great way to enjoy the summer with family and friends. The series features an exciting lineup of bands covering pop, country, rhythm and blues, tropical rock, and more. The show takes place on the football field at Holiday Park, which is located at East Sunrise Boulevard and Federal Highway. Residents and visitors are encouraged to bring lawn chairs, picnic baskets, and coolers. Food and beverages will also be available for purchase. We look forward to seeing you out there this summer!

Event Information
Tent-Free Zone
We will continue to have our Tent-Free Zone. Canopies, tents, and umbrellas are only permitted in the designated areas along the back and sides of the football field.
No Smoking Zone
In order to accommodate all of our guests we will continue with our No Smoking Zone this year, which is located on the south side of the field.
Non-Profit Awareness & Food Drives
Each week a non-profit group will be featured to raise awareness of their program and goals. For the eleventh year, we will be holding food drives throughout the concert series to benefit food banks for people as well as pets. Now more than ever, it is important to help those in need and support such worthy causes. Our goal is to surpass past years’ totals. Think of the impact we could make if every person brought one food item each week. Our goal is 2,000 items.Non-perishable food donations will benefit The Pantry of Broward and Life Net 4 Families. Pet food donations will benefit Abandoned Pet Rescue.
Recycling
Recycle easily and proudly at Starlight Musicals. Recycling bins will be provided throughout the park and the “Recycling Rangers” will be roaming with their wagons.
Safety
Please remember to lock your vehicle and never leave valuables inside.
