Garth Brooks tribute show and line dancing

Capping off a great summer, the Downtown Boca Friday Night LIVE! monthly entertainment series presented by JM Lexus is hosting a free, open-to-the-public evening with a “Best of Garth Brooks” tribute show with plenty of line dancing at Sanborn Square. The ever-popular Gourmet Truck Expo will be serving up curbside, easy-to-grab Southern-style culinary fare with café seating. Line dancing lessons start at 6:30 p.m., and the tribute band will begin at 7:30.

Swede Fest

Swede Fest Palm Beach is an amateur film festival that will be held at the Borland Center for Performing Arts in Midtown, Palm Beach Gardens this Friday. A sweded film is a laughably bad remake of a hit film, in other words, a funny take-off. Visit http://swedefestpalmbeach.com/ for information or call 561.282.4623.

4th annual "Masskrugstemmen"

Think you can hold your beer? The American German Club will host another round of masskrugstemmen, a beer stein hoisting competition that tests your strength, this Friday from 5:00 - 8:00 p.m. For more information, click here. You must be 21 and older to participate.
