Merchant Walkabout & Fly By Radio Concert

Bring the whole family out to Alys Beach's Town Center for a relaxed summer evening filled with great food, music, and community. Start the night with our Alys Beach Summer Savor from 4–6PM, where you can stroll from stop to stop enjoying complimentary seasonal lite bites, while supplies last, from your favorite restaurant merchants. As you make your way through Town Center, be sure to stop in and shop with our retail merchants along the way. It's the perfect chance to sample something new, connect with neighbors, and enjoy the summer atmosphere. Beverages will be available for purchase throughout the evening.

Fourth of July Donut Eating Contest,
Concert & Fireworks
July 4 | Town Center
Celebrate Independence Day—and America's 250th birthday—with one of Alys Beach's sweetest traditions: the Donut Eating Contest, sponsored by Charlie's Delights, beginning at 9AM in the Amphitheatre. Guests of all ages are invited to enjoy a morning of friendly competition, fresh handmade donuts, and festive fun as contestants race to see who can finish the most treats. Categories are available for children, youth, and adults, making it a celebration the whole family can enjoy. Then, gather once again in the evening as the festivities continue with a live concert in the Amphitheatre at 7PM, followed by a spectacular fireworks display over the Gulf at 9PM.
Please note: Fireworks are weather and Gulf-condition dependent. While conditions at Alys Beach may appear favorable, the display may be canceled if conditions near Destin Harbor are deemed unsafe for the fireworks barge to travel or operate. As this is an outdoor event, activities may also be canceled or rescheduled due to severe weather. Please check our social media channels for the latest updates.
