About This Event

This is a strong demand driver for lodging because cheer families often travel in groups and stay multiple nights. For non-participants it is not necessarily a must-attend, but for the local rental market it is exactly the kind of event worth knowing about.

Who This Event Is Best For

Best for cheer teams, families, and anyone booking specifically around a competition weekend.

What To Expect

Expect heavy team travel, spectators, and a busier-than-usual event environment in the area.

Planning Tips for Destin & Miramar Beach Visitors

  • These weekends can affect rates and availability, so book early if this event lines up with your stay.
  • If you're staying in Destin or Miramar Beach, check drive time before heading out since some events are nearby while others are better treated as a short side trip.
  • For weekend events, it helps to pair this with nearby dining, beach time, or another local attraction so the outing feels like part of a full vacation day.
  • Use the official event website for final admission details, tickets, parking, and any same-day schedule changes.

Cost & Admission

Verified on the official event page: spectator fees were listed at $20 for adults, $15 for children ages 6–10, and free for ages 5 and under.

Staying Nearby?

If this event is one reason for your trip, it makes sense to stay somewhere comfortable and keep the rest of the weekend easy. Our rentals work well for guests who want beach time, dining, and local events all in the same trip.
