It's a top spot for fresh seafood caught straight from the gulf, while perfectly-prepared choice steaks round out the menu.

Watch the very best in country music at this fun and exciting festival, where locals plan to reserve tickets, which sell out quickly for this popular event that kicks off in summer each year. Great music continues into the fall with the Songwriter's Festival in November, where singer-songwriters gather for three days of live music in intimate venues across the city. Get up close and personal with these excellent music artists with this exciting concert series. 
 
While most of the country huddles indoors due to cold weather, Panama City Beach locals head outdoors to enjoy the warm February sunshine at the Panama City Beach Food Truck and Craft Beer Festival. Enjoy a weekend sampling from Florida's best food trucks accompanied by craft beers, lawn games, live music, and fun for all ages. This popular event is the perfect place to meet up with friends and enjoy Florida's beautiful weather.
