<p>Tucked away on Florida's breathtaking Forgotten Coast, the annual Forgotten Music Festival is one of the Gulf's best-kept secrets — a two-day celebration of roots-driven music in a setting so beautiful it almost feels unfair. George Core Park in Port St. Joe sits right on the edge of St. Joseph Bay, offering festival-goers panoramic views of pristine coastal waters while they soak up performances spanning blues, soul, funk, Americana, country, folk, and everything beautifully in between.</p><p>Unlike massive stadium festivals, this intimate gathering lets you get up close with the artists, discover your next favorite musician, and connect with fellow music lovers in a laid-back community atmosphere. Local food vendors and food trucks keep everyone fueled, and the warm October weather makes for perfect outdoor listening conditions on the Gulf Coast.</p><p>Port St. Joe is about 90 minutes from Destin, making it an ideal day-trip adventure or a weekend getaway to one of Florida's most unspoiled coastal towns. If you haven't discovered the Forgotten Coast yet, this festival is the perfect excuse to make the drive east.</p>
