The City of Destin will hold a 40th Birthday Bash on Saturday, August 10th at HarborWalk Village. All are invited to the event celebrating four decades of incorporation.

From 5:30-8:30 p.m., enjoy stilt walkers, live music by Tobacco Road, the City’s first drone show, fire spinning, and much more.

“It’s one of those events where there should be something for everyone, no matter the age,” said Tamara Young, City of Destin Public Information Director. “Our Harbor was recently voted 2nd best in the Nation, so it’s a chance to appreciate the gorgeous view, commemorate 40 years, and join our biggest birthday party yet.”

Parking fees at HarborWalk Village and all City-owned parking lots have been waived that evening for the community-wide celebration.
