Sugarshack Downtown: A Destination for Live Music with No Cover
Almost any night of the week you can head up to Bonita Springs and check out the newest live music venue and restaurant, Sugarshack Downtown. Just a short drive from Naples, this unique venue opened at the end of January and promises live music at least Wednesday-Sunday, but their schedule right now is jam-packed.
With two bars and an indoor and outdoor stage, Sugarshack Downtown integrates the landscape of large oak trees around it, making you feel like you're hanging out in the coolest backyard. The kitchen is run by former Three60 Market Chef Gus Chavez and has pizza, burgers, wings and other classic American fare but with a twist—they promise to cook without seed oils.
With sets in both the afternoon and the evening, Sugarshack Downtown is a perfect place for an afternoon or evening of live music with the whole family. While they will have ticketed events, the main mission of Sugarshack is to provide free live music for the community. If you are looking for live music without a cover charge near Naples, head to Sugarshack Downtown. Hear from Naples locals who recently checked out the venue below!Photo Credit: Gulfshore Business

🎶 Live music every night
Sugarshack hosts live music every single night in a super cool, laid-back indoor-outdoor space. It’s casual, family-friendly, and has a vibe that makes you want to stay a while. There’s even a kids’ area with a playhouse and games, so the whole family can hang out together. It’s a rare spot where people of all ages—kids, parents, grandparents—are enjoying the music, singing along, and having fun side by side.
We went last Friday with family and friends, and despite the two-hour wait for a table(by the time we left, they weren’t even taking names anymore!), we still had an amazing time. Honestly, the fact that we never sat down had little effect on the night. We stood outside, grabbed hot slices of pizza, and sipped drinks from the bar cart conveniently located near the stage. It felt more like a backyard jam session with friends than a formal concert—and that’s what makes it special. Click here to read the full review!
