WhereWelcome to SEA
Every event and activity across Sarasota and Manatee counties, in one free app.
Try the appA preview of the concept — the finished app is still in development.
Search everything happening, instantly.
Type what you're after — "food truck," "live music," "this weekend" — and see every match across Sarasota & Manatee counties, pulled from dozens of scattered sources into one home feed.
Narrow it down to exactly your afternoon.
Pick a date, a city and the kinds of events you're into — car shows, festivals, family-friendly, live music — and you'll only see what fits. Tap the map when you want to see what's nearby.
Heart it. We'll remind you.
Save what looks good and we'll remind you before it starts, in the app and with a notification on your phone. No more finding out about the festival the day after.
Set it once. We'll watch for it.
Alert on a category, a city, or both — "car shows in Sarasota" — and we'll send a notification to your phone the moment a new one's added. No more checking back to see what's new.
Or just see it all on a map.
Zoom into your neighborhood, Siesta Key, or downtown Bradenton and see everything happening around you — drag up the list whenever you want the details.
Every Sarasota festival. Every Bradenton food truck. Every Siesta Key sunset yoga. One app.
Built by a Sarasota family, because the app didn't exist.
We went looking for one place that covered every event and activity across Sarasota and Manatee counties. It didn't exist — just scattered calendars, a handful of tourism sites, and a lot of Googling "things to do near me." So we're building it. SEA launches this winter, right as snowbird season kicks off — and everyone on this list will be the first to know.
- Free for everyoneEvery feature, including alerts and reminders. No subscription, ever.
- Every corner of two countiesSiesta Key to Anna Maria Island, downtown Sarasota to Lakewood Ranch.
- Local businesses welcomeWe're onboarding restaurants, shops & event organizers before launch.
