Happy Thursday from Stone. Thanks, Angelea!
Happy Thursday, Toasters. 600+ of you read this every week now, and Riley and I can’t thank you enough. Pro golf lands in Palm Coast for the first time with Furyk & Friends at Hammock Beach, and Friday’s ticket comes with a Billy Currington concert. Saturday starts at the Flagler Beach market, and Maze Dayz opens out in Bunnell. Heads up, rain’s in the forecast most of the weekend, so check before you head out. Sunday morning looks like the best window. Scroll on to plan your weekend.
📅 The Weekend |
✨ Stroll the Enchanted Village Market in Palm Coast — European Village (Palm Coast) — Thursday @ 6–9 p.m.
Free. A twilight “storybook” market in the Village courtyard: artisan vendors, live music, glowing lights, seasonal treats, and photo spots. Cork & Pint karaoke runs 8–11 p.m. in the same building if you want to keep going.
⛳ Watch pro golf and Billy Currington at Furyk & Friends — Ocean Course at Hammock Beach Resort (Palm Coast) — Friday @ gates 10:30 a.m., concert about 7 p.m. · Saturday & Sunday @ gates 10:30 a.m.
The PGA TOUR Champions event moved here from Jacksonville this year, so pros on an oceanfront Nicklaus course are 15 minutes away. Friday tickets start at $50 and include the Currington concert after play; Saturday and Sunday start at $25. Kids 17 and under get in free with a ticketed adult, and military, veterans, and their families are free. Park free at DSC Palm Coast (3000 Palm Coast Pkwy SE) and ride the 10-minute shuttle.
🛒 Wander the Saturday market at Flagler Beach for Pumpkin Fest — In front of City Hall, S. 2nd St. (Flagler Beach) — Saturday @ 9 a.m.–1 p.m.
Free, with 30+ merchants. The Hangry Baker (@thehangrybakerco) is out 8 a.m.–1 p.m. with new pumpkin and fall bakes for Pumpkin Fest. She handed me a cinnamon roll the day I met her, so go early and thank me later.
🌽 Get lost at Maze Dayz on opening weekend — Cowart Ranch & Farms, 8185 W. Hwy 100 (Bunnell) — Saturday & Sunday @ 10 a.m.–7 p.m.
$15 a person, 2 and under free, $13 for seniors, military, and first responders. A 5-acre walk-through corn maze, hayrides, pumpkin patch, sunflowers, farm animals, and a bonfire. No pets, and bring a flashlight if you’re doing the maze late.
🚶 Join The Mom Walk Collective at a farm fall festival — County Line Family Farms (Ormond Beach, on the Flagler line) — Saturday @ 10 a.m.–2 p.m.
Local moms meeting up at the farm’s fall festival; you pay your own way in. RSVP on their Facebook event.
🎸 Hear Micah Kimball play Barnhill’s in Flagler Beach — Barnhill’s (Flagler Beach) — Saturday @ 6–9 p.m.
Flagler Beach’s own singer, and the guy running Tuesday trivia at Break-Awayz. A good Saturday night move if you’re staying on the beach side.
🛒 Hit the European Village Sunday market — European Village (Palm Coast) — Sunday @ 11 a.m.–3 p.m.
Free, rain or shine, 40+ vendors. Jags fans can start at Cork & Pint for the 9:30 a.m. Eagles–Jaguars London game, with mimosa and Bloody Mary specials, and walk straight into the market when it ends.
