EVENTS
We like to celebrate on our stretch of the Gulf Coast. So, you'll find events in Gulf Shores, Orange Beach and nearby towns all year long! We've got everything from parades to plays, billfish to beer, concerts to competitions. Looking for a festival? Immerse yourself in seafood, music, and hot air balloons. Come to the Gulf Coast, experience each season, and revel in... well, the revelry!
