Can anyone please tell me if there are going to be any Polka bands this year at the outdoor venues? I am aware that there is a Polka club in the Villages, but we cannot join because apparently, you have to live in the Villages proper in order to attend the indoor Polka events. I know that they used to have them at the the Town centers at various times, but I cannot find any info regarding any type of schedules at the Town Squares. Can anyone help me with this? My Dear late Mother LOVED polka music, and we used to take her to all of the local Polka events back in N.J., and there were plenty of them that ANYONE could attend. I just cannot find any Polka venues down here within a hundred miles of Citrus County, and I truly miss the music. Can anyone please help? I would really be grateful! Thanks in advance for any help anyone would offer! Peter

Polka bands are not normally scheduled at the town squares.
The only time you will find them is when we celebrate Oktoberfest. Watch the papers for that celebration.

They used to have a Dyngus Day celebration in one of the squares each year. Not sure if they still do.

The mind boggles at the thought of polka dancing on the squares.
A steady stream of emergency vehicles running a shuttle to the nearest A&E's come to mind! :ohdear:

What a better polka fix than Cabbage Rolls and Coffee.

That must have been a long time ago, the only time you see it now is Oktoberfest. There is probably a club though that has it.
