Flagler Beach will host a free, all-ages concert and fundraiser next week that combines a local restaurant’s 10th anniversary with a benefit for the city’s first responders.
The event, called “Ignite the Night,” is set for Saturday, July 18, 2026, from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m. It will take place in the parking lot of Tortugas Florida Kitchen & Bar at 608 S. Oceanshore Blvd. in Flagler Beach. The nonprofit Flagler Strong is organizing the event to raise money for the Flagler Beach Fire Department and Ocean Rescue teams.
The date also marks 10 years in business for Tortugas, along with the 50th birthday of owner Scott Fox. According to a press release announcing the event, the restaurant is turning its milestone into a fundraiser to support local first responders.
Admission is free and open to people of all ages. Donations are encouraged, and the event will include silent and live auctions along with other ways to give.
Music Lineup
The event will feature four acts, ending with a headlining performance:
- The Greentree Brothers will open the show with a local, crowd-pleasing style.
- Sober Cafe will follow with what organizers describe as a distinct, high-energy sound.
- Michael Constantino will perform next, described in the release as bringing powerful vocals and a contemporary performance.
- U2-2U, a U2 tribute act, will close out the night as the headliner.
Why the Event Matters to Organizers
Fox said the event reflects the relationship between his restaurant and the community over the past decade.
“For 10 years, Flagler Beach has supported Tortugas, and we wanted our anniversary to be about giving back to the people who protect this community every single day,” Fox said. “We’re bringing in phenomenal music, celebrating a decade of memories, and raising vital funds for our local fire and ocean rescue heroes.”
