Holmes Beach Marks 75 Years With a Community Celebration

Holmes Beach is celebrating its 75th anniversary with a free community event at City Field on December 5th from 5 to 9 p.m.


Holmes Beach is hitting an exciting milestone. The city turns 75 this year and is celebrating with an event that's true to the island's personality... relaxed, welcoming, and community-centered.



On Friday, December 5, City Field will turn into a lively gathering spot from 5 to 9 p.m. Neighbors, families, and longtime friends are invited to enjoy live music, local vendors, and family-friendly fun. It's free to attend and open to everyone who wants to join in on the celebration.



Jah Movement will deliver their signature blend of reggae and R&B, while Trevor Bystrom brings his island-inspired sound. These two well-known musical performances will set the stage for a fun and high-energy night.



The kids will enjoy a bounce house, face painting, and a few other surprises.
