Siesta Key Drum Circle
May 11 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm
Experience one of Sarasota’s most iconic and free-spirited traditions at the Siesta Key Drum Circle, held every Sunday evening just before sunset on the soft white sands of Siesta Beach. Drummers, dancers, locals, and visitors gather in a vibrant circle to celebrate rhythm, community, and the beauty of nature. Feel free to bring your own drum, join the dancing, or simply relax and enjoy the colorful scene. Family-friendly and open to all ages. No tickets or registration required — just show up and soak in the good vibes!
Time:
Gathering starts about one hour before sunset
Drumming and dancing usually continue until after sunset
(Note: Arrival times shift slightly throughout the year depending on sunset times so please don’t make the mistake of thinking the time is 7:30-9:00 PM throughout the year)
Additional Notes:
The circle forms south of the main Siesta Beach Pavilion, near the green lifeguard stand.
Parking is available at the Siesta Beach parking lot (arrive early to secure a spot).
Bring beach chairs, water, and anything you need to enjoy a sunset at the beach.
