With the holiday season about to get underway, we have plenty to celebrate here in the Village of Royal Palm Beach! After you enjoy your Thanksgiving with friends and family, be sure to make plans to attend the village’s Winter Festival on Saturday, Dec. 6 at Royal Palm Beach Commons Park. It will be a day-long event with plenty of entertainment for young and old alike. As evening falls, village officials will light the Christmas tree and welcome the arrival of Santa Claus. Check out our preview of this special holiday event this issue.
Also this issue, we learn about the growing sport of padel, and a new facility called XCEL Padel, opening in December near the South Florida Fairgrounds. We also visit The DRIPBaR, a fascinating new business that focuses on IV vitamin therapy and other health and wellness options.
Next, we visit the Southeastern Invitational martial arts tournament held recently at the Royal Palm Beach Recreation Center. Finally, our Royal Palm Table feature this issue is on Topsail Steamer, which opened recently on Southern Blvd. in Royal Palm Beach, featuring their signature steam-and-eat seafood pots that you can pick up and enjoy at home.
From our family to yours, we wish you an amazing holiday season and a festive new year. We shall return in 2026 with more feature stories spotlighting great things happening here in the Village of Royal Palm Beach.
