Perhaps there’s no more revitalizing time to do exactly that than when a new year is on the horizon.

Here, you can slow things down, embrace the best of holiday fun, and spend quality time with those you love most as you leave the past year in your wake. Whether you fill your itinerary with the following events and activities or just enjoy a few, spending New Year’s in Fort Myers is bound to be an inspiring experience.
Enjoy Live Music in the Park

For those looking to celebrate the arrival of a brand-new year on the calendar, that means plenty of opportunities to head out and make more of gatherings and events in the great outdoors! Among the many opportunities to revel in the New Year’s Eve entertainment in this area is the annual live music in the park experience hosted on the 31st at Bayside Park.
