Entertainment Guide

Every Night Is
a Night Out

Three Town Squares, Three Personalities

Each of The Villages' three town squares has its own character, dining scene, and entertainment lineup. Together, they host live music and performances every single night of the year — 365 nights of live entertainment that keep the community's 100,000+ residents buzzing.

Spanish Springs Town Square

The original town square and the largest of the three. Spanish Springs features a wide central plaza with a full entertainment stage, surrounded by restaurants, shops, and the iconic Spanish-style architecture. Live music plays nightly on the main stage.

The social heart of the community

Lake Sumter Landing

Waterfront dining, a boardwalk, and a beautiful marina backdrop make this the most scenic of the three squares. The open-air bandshell hosts nightly performances, and the lakeside setting gives it a resort-style feel.

Brownwood Paddock Square

Western-themed and full of character, Brownwood has a more casual, laid-back feel. The covered stage area hosts country, rock, and oldies acts, and the surrounding restaurants offer everything from BBQ to Italian.
