About Gulf Shores Lineup

We started Gulf Shores Lineup because the best stuff happening down here doesn't always make it to the tourist brochures. The locals know — the oyster bar tucked behind the marina, the songwriter round at that Fairhope wine bar, the market in Foley that's worth the Saturday morning drive. We built a place that pulls together the full lineup so you always know what's worth your time.

Coverage area — every dot is one of the Coastal Alabama & Northwest Florida communities we cover.

We cover the Gulf Coast on both sides of the Alabama–Florida line. In Alabama: Gulf Shores, Orange Beach, and Baldwin County — from the beaches to the Eastern Shore communities of Fairhope, Daphne, and Spanish Fort, down through Foley and Robertsdale and out to Fort Morgan. Across the state line in Northwest Florida: Perdido Key, Pensacola, and Pensacola Beach, plus the Santa Rosa County towns of Gulf Breeze, Navarre, Milton, and Pace. Beach bars to art galleries, fishing tournaments to food festivals — if it's happening down here, it's on our lineup.

The restaurants locals actually eat at (not the tourist traps with the giant signs on 59). Live music every night of the week — beach bars, breweries, downtown stages. Fishing tournaments, festivals, farmers markets, art walks, outdoor adventures, and the kind of under-the-radar spots that make this area special. We post the full event lineup daily and write about the food and places that are actually worth your time.

Whether you've been here since before the condo towers went up, you just bought a place on the Eastern Shore, or you come down every winter and already feel like a local — Gulf Shores Lineup is here to make sure you always know what's on. There's more going on down here than any one person can keep track of. That's what we're for.
