Harris Vacations Staff Writer | December 12, 2022

What could possibly make soaking up the sun on the soft, sand beaches of Gulf Shores any better than you could have ever imagined? How about coupling the experience with Gulf Shores Alabama music festival memories that you’ll never forget?

Here, we take our Gulf Shores music festivals seriously and make sure that everyone has an awesome time listening to the best acts around—whether they’re from right here in town or across the world. Continue reading on below to learn more about the incredible Gulf Shores musical festivals that you can go to when you visit!

Local Music Festivals You Won’t Want to Miss

Possibly the biggest and most popular music festival in all of the Gulf Coast region, the annual Hangout Music Fest brings together artists from all genres and all over the country to perform their music on the soft white sand beaches and in the gorgeous weather of the Gulf Shores. The Gulf Shores festival lasts for a total of three days in May of each year, setting up a giant stage on the beach right next to the ocean.

Headliners include bands and musicians like Mumford & Sons, Twenty One Pilots, Frank Ocean, Chance the Rapper, Weezer, MGMT, Band of Horses, Franz Ferdinand, Young the Giant, Charli XCX, The Strumbellas, Shaggy, Bishop Briggs, and Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness. Festival-goers must be eighteen years or over, or be accompanied by an adult over the age of twenty-one, so plan accordingly.

Another musical event that comes to the Gulf Shores every so often is the C Spire Concert Series, which features artists like Luke Bryan, Green Day, and more. Other music festivals with a distinctly more local flair include the Annual Frank Brown International Songwriters’ Festival in November and the Gumbo Key Boat-In Concert in June. The Frank Brown International Songwriters’ Festival celebrates the life, music, and music inspired by the famous songwriter Frank Brown, while the Gumbo Key Boat-In Concert is a floating musical experience that you can partake in by boat, in the waters just north of Orange Beach.
