Sunset Beach Concert Series

Looking for something to do this summer that is fun and free? Some Tarpon Springs residents say there is nothing better than listening to live music on the beach, watching the sun set and the moon rise, while couples stroll, children play, families enjoy picnics and the stars come out.

Concerts at Sunset Beach are scheduled once a month around the full moon, making for beautiful night skies. All concert times are 7:00 to 9:00 pm on Thursdays, unless rescheduled due to inclement weather. [map/directions]
