So Many Options to Celebrate in July!

Summer is a fantastic time to visit the beaches of Destin, Ft. Walton, Navarre and South Walton and not just because of obvious reasons (paddleboarding, kite flying, sun bathing, etc.). Our summers are packed with celebratory events no matter where you’re staying!


The Pensacola Symphony Orchestra will be kicking off the South Walton festivities with a concert for the annual Seaside Stars and Stripes tradition. Beginning at 7:30 pm in the Seaside Amphitheater on July 3rd visitors are invited to bring a chair and snacks and recline on the lawn while the PSO entertains. Then, the next morning will usher in the South Walton 4th of July Parade which features decorated cars, bikes and trucks rolling along Scenic 30A from Seagrove to Seaside. A concert by the Victory Belles will be later in the evening at 7 pm followed by the Seaside Fireworks Spectacular.  


Next, vacationers near the Destin harbor have so many options for Independence Day celebrations. July 1st through the 4th will see live music each night at 7 pm at the Harborwalk Village Amphitheater with a big finale of fire spinning and fireworks!


Finally, Okaloosa Island and Ft. Walton Beach visitors and locals have exciting things planned for them, too! The Landing is offering free admission to two 4th of July concerts beginning at 4 pm- Show me Dragon and NAKD who always put on great shows! Plus, free kids activities and games promise fun for the whole family! Then of course, the sky will light up in millions of colorful fireworks at 8:45 pm. Wherever you are along the Emerald Coast this July fun is sure to find you!
