Gulf Coast Jam Country Artists, Activities and Event Info
Who to See
Every fall, Panama City Beach hosts a three-day country music festival at Frank Brown Park. This event brings some of country music’s biggest names to the main stage to perform for some 64,000 fans. During the event, over 30 artists delight fans with 26 hours of music. Past performers have included Toby Keith, Blake Shelton, Miranda Lambert, Lady Antebellum and Luke Bryan. The lineup changes every year, so no festival feels the same.
Things to Do
Aside from seeing country music stars in Panama City Beach, visitors can also eat local food, knock back a few cold ones and watch college football on TVs located throughout the grounds. Families will find fun activities for kids and can shop for goodies.
Tickets
With a focus on flexibility, several ticket options are available. Three-day general admission tickets provide an affordable way to see all the performers. For up-close views and perks — like air conditioning — buy a VIP pass. Know someone active in the military or a veteran? They receive special pricing and an appreciation tent just for them. The Gulf Coast Jam sells out, so get tickets in advance.
Getting Around and Where to Stay
Those who don’t want to worry about crowds can hop aboard the Gulf Coast Jam shuttle, which is free. The shuttle stops at several resorts and retail centers, and takes guests back to the pick-up point each night.
For a great experience — with more privacy — book a Panama City vacation rental. Couples can choose from one- and two-bedroom with kitchens, patios, multiple bathrooms and gatherings. Large groups and families will find rentals with three to six bedrooms and all the amenities of home. After all, festival-goers need a place to relax after a fun day of music!
