Celebrate the Changing Seasons with FPL SolarNow
Now that it’s officially Fall, and you can find palm trees swaying from cooler breeze, FPL SolarNow is “falling” for a different kind of tree – solar trees. These innovative structures can be found at attractions near you, where they harvest a bounty of solar energy that we can all be thankful for.
We’re inviting you to join us in this celebration, as FPL SolarNow partner locations offer Fall and Halloween-themed activities throughout Florida, blending the power of sustainable energy with seasonal festivities.
If you’re looking to fall into some fun, below are some ways you can join us in celebrating solar along with the changing seasons.
Have an Autumn Adventure
See solar energy in action at one of our more than 70 FPL SolarNow partner locations, where solar trees and canopies have been “planted” across Florida for people of all ages to learn about the power of the sun. Whether you want to visit a park, zoo, or museum, you can see solar arrays in popular hot spots throughout your neighborhood. These trees may not boast fall foliage, but they do provide shade and feed clean energy back into the community.
Check out some fall-themed events this year at partner locations, several of which are free and offer the chance to celebrate our commitment to a cleaner planet.
Boo at the Zoo – Make the most of spooky season by visiting Brevard Zoo’s Halloween event taking place every Saturday and Sunday during October. Each weekend, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., you can have a spooktacular time filled with trick or treat stations, face painting, and your favorite zoo animals, all while dressed in your best costume!
2024 Fall Fest – Come join the festivities at the 2024 Fall Fest at the Paradise Coast Sports Complex on Oct. 26 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. This annual festival features trunk-or-treat candy, hayrides, bounce houses, face painting, a costume parade and much more. This premier sport complex also boasts a solar tree that provides both shade and emissions-free energy for the community.
