Get ready—another unforgettable summer is just around the corner on Long Beach Island! From sun-drenched beach days to community celebrations that bring the island to life, LBI is set to deliver a season full of memories, magic, and must-see moments.
Tucked along the scenic Jersey Shore, LBI is known for its breathtaking beaches, glowing sunsets, and a one-of-a-kind coastal charm. Whether you’re a longtime local or discovering the island for the first time, summer 2025 promises something special for everyone.
This year, the Long Beach Island Chamber of Commerce is proud to present a jam-packed calendar of exciting events that highlight the very best of LBI. Think live music echoing over the dunes, art and food festivals, family fun on the sand, and surf competitions that capture the spirit of the sea.
What makes summer on LBI truly special? It’s our blend of small-town warmth and vibrant beach culture. Take a stroll through our welcoming communities and you’ll find quaint boutiques, local eats, and friendly faces around every corner. And when the island comes together for an event—whether it’s a concert under the stars or a handmade craft fair—you’ll feel the magic that only LBI summers can bring.
