Space Coast State Fair: the final weekend
Friday–Sunday, November 13–15 · Space Coast Daily Park, 5775 Stadium Parkway, Melbourne.
The fair’s 2026 run ends November 15. Its detailed listing advertises Friday hours of 5–11 p.m., Saturday hours of 1–11:30 p.m. and Sunday hours of 1–10 p.m. That gives you an evening option on Friday or a longer afternoon-and-evening visit over the weekend.
After the October presale deadline, listed gate admission is $10 and Friday–Sunday unlimited-ride armbands are $30, before taxes and fees. Check ticket inclusions and availability before buying. Fair details and ticket links.
Friday: live music at Intracoastal Brewing
November 13, 2–10 p.m. · 652 W. Eau Gallie Boulevard, Melbourne.
The Rocky Water Welcome Brewers Party is open to the public. The advertised music lineup has The Syndicate Band playing 2–5 p.m. and Hot Pink playing 6–9 p.m. It is a separate Friday event from Saturday’s ticketed Rocky Water Brew Fest, so check which event you are booking or attending. Welcome party details.
Friday: Keep Them Flying gala in Titusville
November 13, 5–9 p.m. · Venue on the Horizon at the Valiant Air Command Warbird Museum, 6600 Tico Road, Titusville.
This aviation fundraiser features dinner, cocktails, dancing and entertainment from The Vocalitas. The listing encourages 1940s-inspired clothing but says period dress is optional. The early-bird deadline has passed; advertised tickets now start at $150 per person. Confirm remaining seats directly with the museum before making plans. Gala information and booking link.
Saturday and Sunday: Veterans Open House Weekend
November 14–15, 9 a.m.–5 p.m. · Valiant Air Command Warbird Museum, 6600 Tico Road, Titusville.
The museum’s open-house listing advertises free admission for veterans and Florida residents and requests a non-perishable food donation. Listed activities include veteran-related exhibitors, live music, simulators and open cockpits. This daytime weekend event is distinct from Friday’s paid gala. Check the museum’s admission arrangements and activity schedule before visiting. Open-house details.
Saturday and Sunday: Parade of Gems
November 14, 10 a.m.–5 p.m.; November 15, 10 a.m.–4 p.m. · Melbourne Auditorium, 625 E. Hibiscus Avenue.
The Canaveral Mineral & Gem Society’s show includes jewelry and lapidary vendors, a children’s activity area and a silent auction. The advertised entry donation is $5; children 14 and younger enter free with an adult. Note the earlier Sunday closing time when deciding which day to attend. Gem-show details.
Saturday: Manatee Mania at Playalinda
November 14, 10 a.m.–noon · Playalinda District, Canaveral National Seashore.
This drop-in ranger program explores manatees and their connection to Mosquito Lagoon. Check the sandwich board at the Playalinda entrance booth that day for the program’s location. The program is listed as free, but park entrance fees still apply; it is not a free-entry offer for the seashore. NPS event details.
Before you head out
Choose your part of the county first: the aviation events and Playalinda program are in the Titusville area; the brewery party and gem show are in Melbourne; the fair is on Stadium Parkway. Check the individual event links for changes, tickets and final arrangements. NPS notes that ranger programs can be canceled or rescheduled because of weather, staffing or other conditions. Check the current ranger schedule.
