Orange Beach Freedom Fest: The Orange Beach Freedom Fest is a true, down-home celebration of America with a car show, concerts, special speakers, arts and crafts, children's activities, food… just an All-American red, white and blue weekend in Orange Beach, Alabama.

The schedule will include arts and crafts, food vendors, entertainment, children's activities and a fall edition of Bama Coast Cruisin'. That Friday night will also include entertainment at the Orange Beach Performing Arts Center. Then on Sunday, Oct. 2, a full afternoon is planned for the Amphitheatre at The Wharf with all proceeds benefiting a special nonprofit. Stay tuned for more details.

Bama Coast Cruisin': Our goal with Bama Coast Cruisin' was to create an inclusive show that welcomes anyone who loves cars and enjoys cruisin' the open road. There are no restrictions to the vehicles that can be entered into the show. Our motto is: Bring your dream ride and cruise with us!

Bama Coast Cruisin' is an absolutely stunning show. Held at The Wharf in Orange Beach, AL and set against the backdrop of the Inter-Coastal Waterway and the Canal Bridge. It's a laid back, family friendly weekend full of amazing cars, fun events, entertainment and Southern hospitality.

Main Street, which takes visitors through the heart of the shops and restaurants at The Wharf, will be closed to through-traffic during the show. Only Bama Coast Cruisin' show cars will be allowed to drive or park on Main Street. It's a unique and exciting atmosphere for a cruisin' event and there is plenty of FREE Trailer Parking on the grounds of The Wharf!
