Get DirectionsIf you’re visiting the area in late November, the Dunedin Celtic Music & Craft Beer Festival is one of those can’t-miss local events that truly captures the spirit of this charming Gulf Coast town. Taking place on November 22, 2025, at Highlander Park in Dunedin, this lively celebration combines the sounds of Celtic music with the best of Florida’s craft beer scene.
A Celebration of Celtic Culture
You’ll know you’re in the right place the moment you hear the pipes and drums echoing across the park. The festival brings together talented Celtic musicians from around the region and beyond, filling the day with traditional tunes, lively dancing, and plenty of local flavor. It’s all organized by the Dunedin Scottish Arts Foundation and runs rain or shine, so the fun goes on no matter the weather.
Local Beer and Laid-Back Fun
Alongside the music, you’ll find an impressive lineup of local and regional breweries serving their signature craft beers. It’s the perfect chance to sip something new, listen to great live music, and enjoy the relaxed outdoor atmosphere that makes Dunedin such a favorite among visitors.
Family-Friendly and Outdoor
While the name might make you think it’s all about the beer, this event is very family-friendly. Guests bring lawn chairs and blankets, spread out across the park, and settle in for an easygoing day of music, food, and community fun.
