We've fought valiantly against the diabolical duo of heat and humidity this summer and managed to hold the line. Now is the time to summon that last bit of strength and hold on until that first cool front arrives. Like the Battle of Helm's Deep when all hope seemed lost and King Theoden and Aragorn rode out against insurmountable odds to take on thousands of orcs and as they do they look up to see Gandalf, Eomer and the Rohirrim charging (like an approaching cool front) to their aid. Sample dozens of craft beers and spirits at the 5th Annual West Palm Beach Beer Fest, learn something and have a blast at the Ukrainian Culture Fest, test your mettle at the Loggerhead Triathlon in Jupiter and more.
In addition to the top five events listed there's
always something great happening at places like The Norton Museum of Art or the Maltz Jupiter Theatre. On top of that you could always just enjoy a great meal with an equally great view at one of Palm Beach County's waterfront restaurants from Jupiter to Boca Raton. Plus, we've curated a list of the best things to do all year in the county, and here it is: your bucket list of 60 fun must-try things to do in Palm Beach County.
