Downtown West Palm Beach hosts a free weekly concert every Thursday at Waterfront Commons, 101 S. Flagler Drive. The event, Clematis by Night, bills itself as the biggest waterfront happy hour around, and admission costs nothing.

The concert series started in 1995 as a modest event in front of the former public library. It has since grown into a weekly waterfront gathering. Organizers say the lineup can change or be canceled, so anyone planning a trip should check the schedule on the city’s website, wpb.org, or call 561-822-2222 after hours for updates.

Attendees should bring a blanket or lawn chairs. Food and drinks are sold on site, and drink specials, food vendors and family activities are part of the night. The event is meant to be relaxed, with music under the stars.

For general questions, the venue can be reached at 561-822-1515.
