Soak Up Spring at These Top Palm Beach Events
The influx of tourists around Palm Beach can only mean one thing: spring is here! Palm Beach spring events are aplenty this season including spring festivals, concerts, art shows, and more. While there are tons of things to do in spring, nothing quite beats a day outdoors celebrating our local arts, music, and culture. As you plan your spring weekend activities, be sure to pencil in one or two of these fun Palm Beach spring events.
Feel the Need for Speed
The Barrett-Jackson Palm Beach Auction, held April 12 - 14, teeters somewhere between a festival and a car show. For more than 45 years, car enthusiasts have relied on Barrett-Jackson as the premiere auction event. With auctions held throughout the U.S., Barrett-Jackson is as notable as the cars they have available. While there are daily events leading up to the weekend, the main auction is where the real action is. Attendees will find a food court, thrill rides with professional drivers, a car symposium, and a live stage event featuring the latest cars from the weekend’s auction. For more information visit the event’s website.
Experience Art in Delray
The Southeast’s oldest and largest art festival is back in Delray Beach this April. Now in its 56th year, The Delray Affair brings an eclectic mix of arts, crafts, and other products to over twelve blocks. Beyond being able to wander from the Intracoastal Waterway to NW 2nd Avenue, attendees will get to experience live music, tons of food vendors, and even Delray Affair After Dark where Atlantic Avenue carries the event into the evening. Best of all, admission to this annual event is free and open to the public. To discover all that the Delray Affair has to offer, head to the official website for all of the details. The Delray Affair takes place April 13-15.

Dubbed a “one of a kind celebration of spring,” the Hatsume Fair will be held at the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens April 21-22. The event is a celebration of the first bud of spring and transforms the tranquil park into a Japanese festival. There are multiple stages featuring taiko drumming, martial arts, fashion, and more along with Japanese street food and artisan booths.
