Sanborn Square — Attraction in Boca Raton

Sanborn Square is a beautiful green space located sandwiched between Federal Highway and Mizner Park in Boca Raton. There is a stage, portico, a sidewalk lined with Royal palms, and beautiful fountains. During the holiday season the city of Boca uses the space to put up a manager, Christmas Tree and other holiday themed lighted decorations. The square had a moment in the spotlight when in 2016 a local teacher erected a 10 foot Satanic pentagram in response to the cities religious display.

The space is available to rent for weddings. It also hosts art exhibits, yoga classes, and festivals. On Saturday night I attended the 3rd Annual Downtown Boca Italian Fest. It was packed with people and included rides, food, and live entertainment.

During the festival Federal Hwy was blocked off and parking can be kind of tricky in this area. There is a strip mall located adjacent to this area but do not park there. It is patrolled and if you are caught parking in the plaza but not visiting a business there they will have you towed and are quite aggressive about it. If there aren't any events going on here you can usually find parking on the street. If there is an event your best bet is to park in the Mizner Park...

What a wonderful experience it was to visit this outdoor art exhibition space! Each artwork seamlessly blended with the surrounding nature, creating a magical and enriching atmosphere. The variety of artistic styles and techniques present was simply fascinating, offering visitors a diverse and captivating insight. Moreover, the arrangement of the artworks allowed for a unique interaction with the environment, inviting us to reflect and appreciate the beauty of both art and nature. Undoubtedly, this place is a creative oasis that inspires and uplifts the spirit. A delightful experience I would recommend to all art and outdoor beauty...

This is one of my favorite parks in Boca Raton. You can just feel its rich history from all of people that have past thru the park over the many years. This is also one of Boca's best event venues. The Boca Burger Battle takes place in July, the Boca Raton Wine and Food Festival takes place in November, the Taco Battle takes place in February and the Wing/Dessert Battle takes place in April. Everyone loves the feel of the park when it's bustling with people and music. Be sure to check it out when...
