At 9:30 on a Wednesday morning, yoga mats go down on the green at Delray Marketplace. Eight and a half hours later, at 6 p.m., a band starts at the amphitheater near Burt & Max's, and people who brought their own chairs settle in until 8. Both are free and open to the public. Both are scheduled every week, and neither needs a ticket.
Boca Bridges sits on the west side of Lyons Road between Atlantic Avenue and Clint Moore Road, as the Palm Beach Daily News described it when the first buyers moved in. Delray Marketplace is at 14851 Lyons Road, so the season's most dependable stop is up the same road. From now through January, the calendar around here keeps a steady shape, with the recurring programs on Wednesdays and the one-time events on Saturdays, while the farms in the Agricultural Reserve open by the month, with no set date.
Wednesday Has Two Halves
The morning half is Yoga on the Green, a free Wellness Wednesday class from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. Its posted season began August 26, 2026, and runs to May 26, 2027. That makes it the longest-running free program on the corridor, starting before the snowbird months and ending well after them.
The evening half is the Delray Marketplace Music Fest. It runs every Wednesday from 6 to 8 p.m., October 7, 2026, through April 28, 2027. The marketplace asks guests to bring a chair or blanket to the amphitheater. The performers are local artists. Put the two programs side by side and the yoga season outlasts the concerts by four weeks at the end of spring. Through the winter months, though, both halves of the day run every week.
The weekly format makes the concerts easy to plan around, but the bands change every week. Each act is booked for one night, and the posted genres range widely.
The Lineup, November Through January
The marketplace has posted its schedule through January.

A few dates fall on holiday weeks. November 25 is the night before Thanksgiving. December 23 and December 30 come right before Christmas and New Year's Day. The marketplace calls this the schedule "to date," and it canceled the October 7 opener. The page itself is the place to check before heading out on a holiday week.
Saturdays Carry the One-Time Events
The weekly programs fall on Wednesdays. The single-date events this season fall on Saturdays, and three of them land within five weeks.
- Holiday Happenings, Saturday, November 14, 3 to 6 p.m., Delray Marketplace. The tree lighting is at dusk. The free event also lists visits with Santa, crafts, a trackless train, face painting, performers, hot cocoa, music, local dignitaries and cookie decorating sponsored by Publix. The rain date is Sunday, November 15, and the marketplace notes that activities run while supplies last.
- Legends on the Lawn with The VAM Band, Saturday, November 21, 7 to 9 p.m., Canyon Amphitheater. Palm Beach County runs the amphitheater at 8802 Boynton Beach Boulevard. The concert is free, and The VAM Band plays disco and funk.
- Legends on the Lawn with Soundsations, Saturday, December 19, 7 to 9 p.m., Canyon Amphitheater. Also free. Soundsations plays '70s disco.
The county's Canyon Amphitheater page lists these two concerts as its upcoming shows. The marketplace's Wednesday series is local cover bands every week. The county's Saturday nights are fewer and lean toward a single era, disco in both cases this season.
The Farms Open by the Month
Saturdays fill the day only if the farms are open, and the farms work on a different clock. Crops set the schedule, so the posted information gives months, not dates.
Bedner's Farm Fresh Market at 10066 Lee Road in Boynton Beach lists these u-pick windows:
- Strawberries: December through April
- Grape tomatoes: December through April
- Tomatoes and green or red peppers: December through May
- Sunflowers: October, then January through May
- Cucumbers: March and April
December is when the list fills in. Strawberries, both kinds of tomatoes and the peppers all start that month, so a visit before then mostly finds the market, not the fields. Bedner's says its fresh-produce markets are open all year, seven days a week. Its location page lists the store as open daily from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. U-pick sales stop one hour before the store closes, and u-pick is closed on Tuesdays. The farm has not posted a first picking date or picking prices for 2026–27. Its most recent crop-status update still showed the seasonal attractions as closed for summer, so a call before the first strawberry trip will save an empty run.
The Girls Strawberry Patch at 14466 S. Military Trail in Delray Beach is open now, though not yet for strawberries. As of October 2026, The 561 Scoop reported a pumpkin patch and farm animals. The farm is closed Mondays and open Tuesday through Friday from 10:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. and weekends from 10 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. The petting zoo and pumpkin patch close at 7 p.m., with last admission at 6:30. Admission is $12 for adults 13 and older and $9.95 for children ages 3 to 12 and seniors 65 and older. Children 2 and under get in free. Cow cuddles cost $5 for five minutes or $10 for ten, and the train costs $5. The same report calls strawberry picking seasonal and gives no 2026–27 start date.
The pumpkin patch is the reason to go in late fall. Berries come later, once the farm announces them.
Saturday Mornings, Before the Afternoon Events
For produce before the u-pick fields open, the Delray Winter GreenMarket is already running. The Delray Beach CRA lists the season as October 24, 2026, through May 22, 2027, every Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Old School Square, 51 N. Swinton Avenue. Vendors listed include Gratitude Garden Farm, with organic mushrooms, produce, juices and tinctures, and Jerry's Here Farm Fresh, with produce, guacamole, salsas and aguas frescas. The market's other offerings include citrus, tropical fruit and eggs.
On November 14, the timing works out neatly. The GreenMarket closes at 2 p.m., and Holiday Happenings opens back on Lyons Road at 3, with the tree lighting at dusk. Both are free to attend. The CRA lists no admission fee for the market.
Through January, the pattern holds. There's yoga and a band every Wednesday at Delray Marketplace, the GreenMarket every Saturday morning, and a few Saturday evenings of free disco at Canyon Amphitheater. In December, the strawberry and tomato fields at Bedner's are scheduled to open on Lee Road.
When guests are visiting for the holidays, a Wednesday concert or a Saturday on the farms can fill the visit easily. If one of those guests starts asking what it would take to live near Lyons Road, Michael Unger is glad to talk it through quietly. Request a Private Preview whenever the time is right.
