Celebrating craft beer, spirits and wine in Panama City Beach.
If you've visited Panama City Beach in recent years, you're well aware of all the positive developments that have taken place in this long-time haven of beach fun and family getaways. Though the beautiful water and sparkling white sand remain unchanged, long gone are the days of MTV spring breaks and two-story motels, replaced instead by majestic, amenity-rich resorts and endless acres of upscale shopping, entertainment, and dining. In fact, TripAdvisor recently named Panama City Beach one of the top three beaches in the United States.
Another huge draw for people converging on Panama City Beach and its neighboring communities is the growing number of major events hosted here. From outdoor beach concerts such as Gulf Coast Jam and Sand Jam to more intimate and upscale events like UNwineD, there's something for every taste along these shores.
UNwineD takes place at Panama City Beach's Aaron Bessant Park, with 70 acres of expansive green space and a state-of-the-art amphitheatre, all just steps from the white sand and emerald water.
Panama City Beach is pulling out all the stops, determined to make the event the best yet. Southern Living magazine will host an elite VIP event featuring Chef Kelsey Barnard Clark, winner of Bravo Network's Top Chef. The party will also feature live music, craft cocktails, and a whole lot of delicious cuisine. Only 250 tickets will be sold to this special VIP kick-off party, and they include admission to the entire UNwineD weekend.
