Events this weekend in Fort Myers this weekend 🔥

If you’ve been wondering where all the fun people disappeared to, spoiler: they’re still here, they’re just busy hopping between parties events in Fort Myers almost every night of the week. The city’s social calendar is packed right now – from emo singalongs and art-covered sidewalks to line dancing, car shows, and metaphysical craft markets – and about 10,746 people are already RSVP’d or circling the ‘interested’ button for this week alone. Translation: if you feel like staying in, Fort Myers is going out without you.

What’s driving it? A mix of cooler evenings, snowbirds back in town, and locals who are very done with “just another bar night” and want something with an actual vibe. Emo Night Karaoke Ft Myers has become the go-to for anyone who still knows every word to their high school heartbreak playlist. Chalk Block at ArtFest Fort Myers is the artsy day out that turns downtown pavement into a giant, very Instagrammable canvas. DEO Car Show pulls in gearheads and families alike, while SingOut! Water Music Festival leans wholesome-choir-energy if you’d rather belt harmonies than bar anthems. Mystical Makers Market is where your craft-fair habit meets your crystal phase, and Line Dancing nights are quietly turning casual "I’ll just watch" people into boot-scooting regulars.

You’ll see the action clustered around familiar spots: downtown by 2136 Bay St (where half the city seems to end up after dark), along McGregor Blvd at 10091 (peak "I ran into everyone I know" territory), and even up at 43350 Trailblazer Loop in Punta Gorda when you’re up for a mini-road trip and a change of scenery. These are the places people actually remember the next week – the karaoke nights that get a little too personal, the chalk art that mysteriously survives a brief rain, the car shows that somehow turn into hangouts that last all afternoon.

If you’re choosing where to dive in this month: book Emo Night Karaoke first if you want big-night-out, scream-the-lyrics energy. Hit Chalk Block if you’re more daytime, artsy, and into wandering with a coffee in hand. DEO Car Show is a solid casual hang, especially if you’ve got kids or just like to point at shiny vintage things. Mystical Makers Market is for the crystal girlies, tarot dabblers, and anyone who appreciates handmade over mass-produced. Line Dancing is ideal if you’re not trying to shout over a DJ but still want to move – and maybe accidentally pick up a new hobby.

This is what discovery looks like in Fort Myers right now: a little messy, pretty creative, and absolutely not boring – you just have to pick your lane and show up.
