2024 Events
Florence is proud of its events. From May to New Years, we have our major events, and the Florentine Players have events throughout the year; read more details on each one. Several events are yearly neighborhood traditions.
"Florence Days" is celebrated in May. Florence organization meeting dates are shown on the organizations page.
Some events are recurring events. If we have not been provided final data for the current year, some dates shown may be based on past year information, and as such will show "Tentative" before the date. Some details for "later-in-the-year" events may change. Check with any contacts for confirmation. Florence Futures Foundation makes an effort to provide accurate information, however, we do not guarantee the accuracy of any event details.
