Cape Canaveral Nightlife

For the best jazz south of Jacksonville and north of Miami, hit up this establishment by Riverfront Park.

Visit this 800-foot, character-packed pier for restaurants, bars, and sports activities like fishing or surfing. It’s also a prime viewing location for sunrises and space shuttle launches.

Come for live music several nights a week, including reggae on Saturdays and salsa music and dancing on Thursdays.

See shows at a restored 1920s-era theater. The schedule varies depending on the season; past hits have included A Christmas Carol, Footloose, and Grease.

Sip a cold one at this iconic watering hole on the ocean in downtown Cocoa Beach. Live blues bands perform Thursdays through Sundays; Sunday afternoons lure inlanders from Orlando.

Start with brews and pulled-pork sandwiches on Slow and Low’s breezy patio, then duck inside Cush for stylish cocktails.
