When you stay at Lakeland RV park, you’re close to all the central Florida attractions, but you don’t have to go far for entertainment. Local reggae band Democracy will headline the Lakeland Multicultural Festival on September 16.

The band will play from 6-9 p.m. and there will be food vendors and displays as well. There will also be other cultural acts between the band’s sets.

This free event will take place at the Lake Mirror ampitheatre, next to the Lake Mirror center. Families are welcome and encouraged to attend this fun, free event.

This is just one of the many different festivals going on in Lakeland, so keep checking our blog for more events and news at our park and around town!

First Fridays in downtown Lakeland have been a popular attraction for locals and visitors since 2004. These events bring people from all over Florida and beyond to shop local and discover downtown past the normal 8-5 hours.

First Fridays always feature local vendors and entertainment and some feature special themes, like the upcoming Dog Days of Summer event on September 2. This version of First Friday will allow you to bring your best furry friends for all kinds of dog friendly events.

There will be a pooch parade, police K-9 demonstration, pet portraits, microchipping and more in addition to the outdoor dining, shopping and live music and entertainment that usually fills these events with fun for Lakeland residents and tourists.
