About this event

Tucked along the beautiful Watersound community on Scenic 30A, the Sounds Like Summer series turns The Pavilion at Watersound Town Center into a family-friendly outdoor venue for three special evenings in late July and early August. With covered seating, ceiling fans, and a warm coastal atmosphere, it's the kind of evening that captures everything wonderful about a 30A summer.

The 2026 lineup brings something different each night: July 25 features a Kids Fair & Music with children's crafts, games, and live music; August 4 brings a theatrical performance of Beauty and the Beast by The Seaside REP; and August 11 showcases live music by J & The Causeways as part of the 30A Songwriters Summer Series. Each event is designed to delight both children and adults, making this a perfect night out for families staying along 30A or driving down from Destin and Miramar Beach.

The Pavilion provides ample parking and a comfortable open-air setting where you can spread out on the lawn or claim a seat under the covered canopy. Shows are free or low cost — bring a blanket, some snacks, and let the magic of 30A's summer entertainment scene work its charm on the whole family.

Best for: Families with kids, couples, 30A music fans

What to expect: Three themed summer evenings: Kids Fair & Music (July 25), Beauty and the Beast theatrical performance (Aug 4), and live music by J & The Causeways (Aug 11) at the covered Watersound Pavilion.
