Congratulations are in order to Harry T’s Lighthouse!

They’re celebrating 30 years of serving up delicious seafood by throwing an “Under the Big Top” themed party! Not sure what that means? Well, here’s a little bit of fun history.

Harry T’s opened in 1987 in honor of the famous trapeze artist Harrison Baben, who was also known as “flying Harry T.”

Check out the circus-themed decor on Friday, December 1st beginning at 12pm! Come wearing your best Harry T’s Costume, your oldest Harry T’s t-shirt or other vintage swag and you could win a prize!

Everyone loves a good Roast, right?

In addition to the 30th Birthday Celebration, Harry T’s is hosting a Roast of restaurant owner Dan Empson on Thursday, November 30th from 7:30 to 10:30pm.

Come for a barrel of laughs as celebrity hosts toast and roast while sipping specialty cocktails, enjoying heavy hors d’oeuvres, fine cigars, and uncensored jokes!

RSVP by calling the restaurant. Seating is limited and tickets will benefit the Destin Fishing Museum.
