Nightlife, Entertainment & Festivals

There's more to Sarasota nightlife than meets the eye.

Sarasota nights mean live music, breathtaking sunsets followed by a margarita at a tiki bar, film festivals, comedy shows, artistic performances and so much more! 

From swanky drinks and a date-night dinner to a full-on bar-hopping extravaganza—Sarasota nightlife may not be Miami's South Beach, but there's plenty to do well into the AM hours. Check out a live music venue, head to one of our many craft beer bars boasting dozens of rotating taps, or sip craft cocktails infused with flavors you've never tasted before.
