St. Lucie County has a full calendar of festivals and community events throughout the year, but with so many happening — some only once annually — it's easy to let a favorite slip by unnoticed.
To help Treasure Coast residents plan ahead, TCPalm staff compiled a roundup of their personal picks from around Port St. Lucie and Fort Pierce. The list spans a range of interests and seasons, giving locals a solid starting point for the year.
Highlights from the staff recommendations include Halloween ghost tours, the Highwaymen Heritage Trail Art Show and Festival, and the beloved holiday boat parades in Vero Beach, Fort Pierce, and Stuart. Classic live music performances and a Great American Cleanup event in Fort Pierce also made the list.
Whether you're a longtime resident or new to the area, the recommendations offer a helpful guide to events that locals genuinely love and return to year after year.
