Downtown Fort Myers gave itself a stage on the Caloosahatchee. Caloosa Sound Amphitheater sits in Centennial Park in the River District, across from the convention center and next to the Luminary Hotel, which manages events there for the city. Its seasons lean toward country, classic rock and cultural events, and a free Rockin' on the River series has been part of the mix since 2022. Seating varies by show, so read the listing before you go.

Know Before You Go
Where the Big Tours Play
Hertz Arena in Estero is home to the Florida Everblades and the region's arena for concerts, with room for 8,500 or more. It opened in 1998 as Everblades Arena, became TECO Arena and then Germain Arena, and has carried the Hertz name since 2018. The arena sits off I-75 at Corkscrew Road, exit 123, with about 2,000 parking spaces on site. Cher, Chris Stapleton, Def Leppard and Bad Bunny are among the acts that have played it.
Nearby, Alico Arena at Florida Gulf Coast University holds about 4,600. It is built for basketball and volleyball, but it books concerts too, and the Beach Boys have played it.
The Halls
- Barbara B. Mann Performing Arts Hall sits on the Florida SouthWestern State College campus in Fort Myers with about 1,870 seats and the largest proscenium stage in Southwest Florida. It is best known for touring Broadway, and concerts fill in the rest of the calendar.
- Artis Naples on Pelican Bay Boulevard is home to the Naples Philharmonic, which plays more than 140 orchestral and chamber concerts in Hayes Hall between September and June. Hayes Hall seats about 1,477.
Orchestra fans can follow along on the classical page, and the country page covers the arena and amphitheater crowd.
Timing Your Night
Winter is the busy season in Lee and Collier counties. Snowbirds swell the population from late fall into spring, and I-75 and US 41 feel it. Leave extra time for any show from Thanksgiving through April.
Summer is the opposite problem. The rainy season usually starts in late May and clears out by mid October, and outdoor nights downtown can get rearranged by afternoon storms. Hurricane season, June 1 through November 30, is one more reason to double check the date on your ticket.
