The story of a marriage is at the center of I DO! I DO!, an intimate and nostalgic work by Harvey Schmidt and Tom Jones, with the original Broadway production receiving seven Tony Award nominations. The show begins with a couple on their wedding day. Their vows behind them, they look forward to spending the rest of their lives together. Follow along as they go through their wedding night jitters, raise a family, negotiate midlife crises and work through an infidelity scandal. Throughout this play, they rediscover how much they really need each other. Then, after 50 years of marriage, the couple leaves their house to the next pair of newlyweds. This touching story of two soul mates navigating the perils of life is set to a tuneful, charming score.
“Filled with humor, a fine score and two delightful characters, I do! I do! is an intimate, nostalgic show.” -Chicago Tribune

Movies by Moonlight: Ferris Bueller’s Day Off
2025-05-30 18:00 - 22:00
Kick off the unofficial start of summer with a night that channels the carefree charm of Ferris Bueller himself. On Friday, May 30, The LOOP will roll out the lawn for a special Movies by Moonlight screening of Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, transforming Las Olas Oceanside Park into a retro-inspired celebration for all ages.
The evening begins at 6 p.m., with pre-movie activities that bring the spirit of the film to life. Guests can step into Ferris’ world with a green screen photo booth, complete with themed costumes, and take part in a full-scale “parade moment” featuring the South Florida Pride Marching Band — a nod to the iconic “Twist and Shout” scene that lives rent-free in all our minds.
Nostalgia will be fully fueled with classic hot dogs, a scoop-worthy ice cream station inspired by Ferris’ “passed out at 31 Flavors” cover story, and free popcorn for kids under 16, courtesy of Swiggle (with online registration).
The celebration also includes a playful nod to Ferris’ day at the ballpark, with an interactive baseball-for-beachball challenge. Kids can step up to catch pitches from a real machine — just like Ferris at Fenway — and trade a solid catch for a signature FTLBeach beachball.
In recognition of National Bike Safety Month, lifestyle nonprofit FREERIDE will be on-site, giving away free scooters to the first 30 children ages 6 to 13 who register on-site. They’ll also be sharing bike safety tips, handing out sunglasses and distributing reflective slap bracelets to keep kids safe and seen.
The theme of summer exploration continues with community partners showcasing fun ways to keep kids engaged all season long. From the Museum of Discovery and Science’s STEMobile and Mathnasium’s summer tutoring programs, to School of Rock’s music offerings and Two Bees Parties’ Ferris-themed hair braiding and face tattoos, there’s something for every kind of kid — and every kind of parent looking to make the most of their family’s “days off.”
The film begins at 8 p.m., but early arrival is encouraged to enjoy all the festivities. Whether Ferris was your childhood hero or you’re introducing him to a new generation, this is one night made for memory-making.
Bring a blanket, bring your friends, and let’s send the school year out in style — no hall pass required.

Le Tub 50th Anniversary Weekend Party
2025-05-31 11:00 - 2025-06-02 01:00 | Le Tub, 1100 N. Ocean Drive, Hollywood, FL, 33019, United States
Le Tub, the iconic waterfront dive bar known for its world-famous burgers
and laid-back charm, is celebrating its 50th anniversary with a weekend-long bash from May 31
– June 1, 2025. For half a century, Le Tub has been a must-visit destination for locals and
travelers alike, offering delicious food, cold drinks, and an unbeatable atmosphere along the
Intracoastal Waterway.
To mark this milestone, Le Tub is pulling out all the stops with a 2-day celebration featuring live
bands, food and drink specials, souvenir T-shirts, exclusive gifts, prizes, and more. Guests
can enjoy the same relaxed, no-frills ambiance that has made Le Tub a beloved institution, while
indulging in the burger that put it on the map.
At 50 years young, Le Tub has just completed a major restoration — including a brand-new dock
and seawall built to withstand higher tides. The waterfront seating is now shaded by tiki huts,
and the patio areas feature transparent roofs so guests can enjoy the view rain or shine. The
restaurant’s beloved Old Florida vibe is alive and well, with more than 2,000 quirky, colorful
items — collected over decades from the beach by guests, lifeguards, and founder Russel T.
Kohuth on his daily jogs — lovingly cleaned, restored, and reinstalled. The original clawfoot
tubs remain, freshly repainted with the playful sayings everyone loves. Longtime regulars will
feel right at home, while first-timers will be delighted by this joyful, one-of-a-kind collection of
beachside nostalgia.
Le Tub’s legendary burger was named “The Best Burger in America” by GQ Magazine in
2006, a recognition that catapulted the restaurant to national fame. Even media powerhouse
Gayle King, anchor of CBS Mornings, raved about the burger to none other than Oprah
Winfrey, who herself praised it, further cementing Le Tub’s status as a must-try culinary
experience.
As part of the anniversary festivities, a portion of the weekend’s proceeds will be donated to
local charities, including the Hollywood Historical Society, to honor the community that has
supported Le Tub over the decades.
Join us for a weekend of celebration, nostalgia, and great food as we toast to 50 years of Le
Tub—where history, flavor, and good times come together!
