About this event

Ring in the Halloween season at one of 30A's most charming annual gatherings. The Alys Beach Fall Festival takes over the stunning outdoor Alys Beach Amphitheatre for an evening of family fun that includes fall crafts, face painting, a festive photobooth, and live acoustic music from Huck & Lilly. As twilight settles in, the event transitions to an outdoor movie screening of a family-friendly Halloween film โ€” past years have featured classics like The Addams Family and Casper โ€” complete with trick-or-treating opportunities throughout the evening. The white-washed amphitheatre, framed by swaying palms and the warm Gulf breeze, creates a one-of-a-kind backdrop for your Halloween memories. The Fall Festival is free to attend and open to all ages, making it a perfect activity for families staying in the Destin/Miramar Beach area who want to explore the 30A corridor. Alys Beach is approximately 25 minutes east of Destin on Scenic Highway 30A.
