The Paradise Coast Sports Complex is proud to announce the newest act on Friday Nights!  While we have had "theme" nights on Fridays in the past, with it's popularity increasing, we have had numerous requests for a variety of live acts to perform at The Cove, so we have decided to make select Friday nights something special.

Now, "Live @ The Cove" will mean something different each time and you can check our social media and website for the latest details each week to see what's in store for The Cove on Fridays!

Beginning at 6 pm on those select Fridays, The Cove Beer & Wine Bar will not only feature great music but will have cool drink specials like Frozes, Freislings and occasionally, frozen Mojitos — along with delicacies from a variety of food trucks, including our very own award-winning "FUEL" food truck — So, make Friday nights a must-circle night on your calendar.

Check our website calendar for more details.

Every night has the possibility of being special at Paradise Coast Sports Complex, but one night of each week virtually guarantees a fun time — Sunset Saturdays!

Beginning at 6 pm each Saturday, The Cove Beer & Wine Bar transforms into a reggae universe — with the rhythm of the islands swaying through the palms and the sounds of superb local bands like NostalJah, I-Ruption and Jah Rockaz.

Great music is only one facet of Sunset Saturdays, as cool drink specials like Frozes, Freislings and frozen Mojitos — along with delicacies from Collier County food trucks — make it a must-circle night on your calendar.

So make it a point to structure your Saturdays around Paradise Coast Sports Complex and Sunset Saturdays. You won’t regret it!

Hello Everyone,

We have had an exciting May featuring a wide variety of events. The month began with the Florida High School Athletic Association Lacrosse State Championships. Congratulations to all of the teams that played so hard over the season to make it to Naples. Special congratulations to the players and coaches of the winning teams - St. Andrew's Scots (1A Boys), American Heritage (1A Girls), Lake Mary Rams (2A Boys), Bartram Trail (2A Girls).

This event is executed in conjunction with the Collier County Public Schools and I’d like to give special thanks to Cassie Barrone, Missy Rosenbalm and Joe Lee Gallegos who provided integral support to make this event a success and their partnership to improve the experience for the student athletes that return in 2024.

Hats and Horses were also on show that weekend with our partners Naples Dealers throwing a magnificent customer appreciation party on Kentucky Derby day. The race was shown live on our huge Jumbotron and enjoyed by over 1000 excited race fans!

I traveled to Kansas City to attend the Sports Events and Tourism Association (ETA) symposium, representing the entire region, not just Paradise Coast Sports Complex. It was my honor to meet with and discuss opportunities with potential events rights holders and organizers and also learn from the other sports destinations.

We closed the month out paying our respects to our fallen veterans on Memorial Day. Our ceremony was presided over by Dr (Cmr.) JB Holmes of the Golden Gate VFW Post 7721 and featured speaker Collier County Commissioner Ret. Lt. Col Rick LoCastro. Those paying their respects on Monday morning also observed a flyover from a WW2 era J3 plane, piloted by Forward Air Controller Jessica Stearns. We were able to include Sports into the day, with the Homers for Heroes home run derby after attendees placed flags in memory of fallen military service members. This event was put on by Conquer Athletics and raised money for a variety of veteran causes. We were extremely honored and proud to host this event on such a revered day.

As we head into the summer, the daily deluges that disrupt our event operations are becoming more prevalent, I try to be thankful for the rain as our lakes are as low as I’ve ever seen them!
