About This Event

This show is broader than a typical tourist event, but boat and coastal-lifestyle browsing can still appeal to visitors, especially those already interested in the Gulf lifestyle. It is more of a browse-and-shop outing than a pure entertainment event.

Who This Event Is Best For

Best for boat lovers, coastal-lifestyle shoppers, and visitors who enjoy browsing vendor-style shows.

What To Expect

Expect exhibits, vendors, and a browse-at-your-own-pace format instead of a traditional festival or performance.

Planning Tips for Destin & Miramar Beach Visitors

  • This is a better fit for shoppers and lifestyle browsers than visitors looking for nightlife or kid-focused entertainment.
  • If you're staying in Destin or Miramar Beach, check drive time before heading out since some events are nearby while others are better treated as a short side trip.
  • For weekend events, it helps to pair this with nearby dining, beach time, or another local attraction so the outing feels like part of a full vacation day.
  • Use the official event website for final admission details, tickets, parking, and any same-day schedule changes.

Cost & Admission

Verified on the official event page: admission is listed as free for all visitors.

Staying Nearby?

If this event is one reason for your trip, it makes sense to stay somewhere comfortable and keep the rest of the weekend easy. Our rentals work well for guests who want beach time, dining, and local events all in the same trip.
