Fort Lauderdale with kids: the FAQ
Music & Movement at the Main Library (Fri Oct 30) and Halloween Fest at Bonnet House (Sat Oct 31). Each one links to its official page with times and prices.
Fort Lauderdale Turkey Trot on Nov 26, Light Up Sistrunk on Dec 4 and Noon Year’s Eve at MODS on Dec 31.
Yes. Music & Movement at the Main Library and Light Up Sistrunk are free, going by the official pages. Parking and extras can still cost money.
We go by the town in each listing’s own address, or the library branch for storytimes. Anything with a different town in its address stays on the Miami and Fort Lauderdale pages. Every listing links to the venue’s or organizer’s page, and we only show a date, time or price when that page does. Last checked Oct 30, 2026.
