5 /5 Frank Garcia: Ignite Broward is an annual must-see event, running this year from Feb 14th to 23rd across three locations: Arts Park in Hollywood, Esplanade Park in Fort Lauderdale, and Mad Arts in Dania Beach. It’s a mix of immersive light and sound experiences created by top artists using cutting-edge digital technology.
One of the best things? The free admission! Plus, they had a shuttle running between locations, making it super convenient to hop around without dealing with parking.
I only had time to check out the Fort Lauderdale location at Esplanade Park, and it did not disappoint. The lights and music created an awesome atmosphere, especially for families with kids. It’s a perfect late afternoon or evening activity, and you can easily pair it with a stroll along the Riverwalk, a ride on the water trolley, or a visit to Las Olas Blvd and don’t miss the Thrive sculpture at the Flow apartment tower. If you missed it this year, mark your calendar for the next one!
