If you haven’t noticed the convoy of transporters and the glow of neon art installations arriving today, consider this your official wake-up call. We have reached the most high-octane weekend on the Fort Lauderdale calendar. Whether you’re here for the romance, the horsepower, or the half-marathon, here is your curated “Super-Weekend” guide for Feb 13–15.
1. The 35th Anniversary Cavallino Classic (Feb 13–15) The world’s most prestigious Ferrari concorso has found its new home at The Boca Raton.
-
Friday’s Tour d’Eleganza: Watch a parade of multi-million dollar Ferraris cruise the scenic roads of South Florida.
-
Saturday’s Concorso d’Eleganza: This is the main event. It’s a masterclass in automotive excellence and the ultimate “see and be seen” for car enthusiasts.
2. IGNITE Broward: 5th Anniversary Kickoff (Friday, Feb 13) The city lights up at 5:30 PM this Friday. IGNITE Broward returns with its most ambitious lineup yet—over 25 installations across the county.
-
The Kickoff: Head to the African-American Research Library and Cultural Center at 5:30 PM for the official launch, then catch the live performance by BREAKINMIA at 7:30 PM at Reverend Samuel Delevoe Memorial Park. It’s immersive, futuristic, and entirely free.
3. Valentine’s Day: The Candlelight Special (Saturday, Feb 14) Valentine’s falls on a Saturday this year, making it a “Double Prime” night. If you skipped the restaurant rush, we recommend the Candlelight: Valentine’s Day Special at The Sanctuary Church FTL. Thousands of candles and a live string quartet—it’s the most sophisticated romantic move in the city.
4. The A1A Marathon & 5K (Sunday, Feb 15) While the 5K takes over Las Olas on Saturday, the “Main Event” starts Sunday at 5:45 AM at Esplanade Park.
-
The Finish Line: Even if you aren’t running, the finish line party at Fort Lauderdale Beach Park is the best way to spend a Sunday morning. The energy is electric, and the ocean views are the perfect backdrop for a post-race brunch.
The Real Estate Angle This weekend brings a specific type of buyer to town—one who values precision, whether it’s in a Ferrari engine or a waterfront estate’s architecture. We are hosting several private tours this weekend for guests of the Cavallino Classic. If you’re looking for a garage that can house a collection or a dock that can handle a chase boat, we are on standby all weekend.
