About this event

Shiver me timbers! The 2nd Annual Pirate Brew Fest sails into Destin on Saturday, November 7, 2026, bringing five hours of craft beer, live music, pirate revelry, and coastal fun to one of Destin’s most iconic beachside venues. Billed as Destin’s largest and liveliest pirate festival, this swashbuckling shindig is free to attend and open to the whole crew.

Sample craft brews poured by local and regional breweries, groove to live bands, and let the kids loose on pirate-themed games and activities. Browse the artisan marketplace, fuel up at food trucks, and don’t miss the pirate costume contest — the first 100 attendees to arrive in pirate gear score complimentary gifts.
