Why Destin Should Be Your Home For the Holidays!

Destin, Florida is a wonderful holiday destination. Cool enough to put you in the holiday spirit but still able to enjoy the outdoors. Powder white sand takes the place of snow and emerald-green waters of the Gulf of Mexico are mesmerizing this time of year. Plus, a variety of fun holiday events. Here are a few of our favorites!

The annual Festival of Arts takes place at the Mattie Kelly Arts Foundation Cultural Arts Village on October 29th and 30th. A full weekend of art, music, food, and fun for the whole family. On October 31st take the littles to Grand Boulevard for Halloween on the Boulevard. Trick-or-treat throughout the Town Center for tasty treats provided by restaurants and stores.

For all you athletes out there the annual 30A 10K, 5K, and 1mile Thanksgiving Day race takes place on Thursday, November 24th in Rosemary Beach. This flat and fast route is fun for the entire family. Run for that delicious turkey dinner you plan to devour. Save some room for brunch with Santa on Friday, November 25th at Fish Out of Water.

The Village of Baytowne Wharf puts you in the Christmas spirit with its series The 12 Nights of Light. A special holiday edition of the Wednesday Night Concert featuring three sparkling shows on the Village tree at 6:00, 7:00, and 8:00pm throughout the month of December. Stroll through this quaint village enjoying the festive holiday décor and sparkling lights.

Ring in the New Year on the beautiful Destin harbor. Harborwalk Village invites you to dance your way right into 2023 with live entertainment on the main stage beginning at 7:00pm. This New Year’s Eve celebration includes live music throughout the evening, fireworks, countdown, and Ball Drop. There’s no better place to start a new year than Destin, Florida!
