While there’s never a bad time to visit Greater Fort Lauderdale—events happen one after the next, year-round—the region tends to sparkle even more around the holidays. From family-friendly festivals to swanky soirees hosted by big-name bands and artists, Lauderdale knows how to throw a party to get everyone in the festive spirit. Every year the restaurants, bars, and hotels on and around the 24 miles of sandy shores get on board to celebrate our winter holidays, from Thanksgiving to New Year’s Eve celebrations. Visit any time of the year, and Greater Fort Lauderdale has something to offer you. Visit Lauderdale, everyone under the sun. #Queer Up South Florida & Florida
