Mother’s Day is Sunday, May 9, 2027. In Port St. Lucie the signature event is the Mother’s Day tea at the Port St. Lucie Botanical Gardens, held the Sunday before Mother’s Day in 2026, plus the city’s Mommy Son Dance the week after. Neither had a 2027 date on Oct. 10, so the details below are from 2026. We list brunch only when a restaurant posts its own Mother’s Day menu.
