Panama City, FL – June 8, 2022 – Destination Panama City is excited to announce the details for Salute to Freedom!

This free family-friendly event is open to the public (limited VIP tickets available for purchase).

Schedule of activities includes:

2:00pm – Our Salute to Freedom Festival kicks off with vendors, food trucks, a DJ, bounce house, water activities, and lawn games at the Destination Panama City Visitor’s Center Bayside Stage at 101 W. Beach Drive. There is something for everyone!

3:00pm – Flip Flop Republic takes the stage as you continue to enjoy the sights, sounds and smells of freedom, with plenty to eat and plenty to peruse.

7:30pm – Headliner, Dozzi, a dynamic trio of Australian sisters, is unlike any other girl group on the country music scene. Having performed in Nashville at popular venues such as Dierks Bentley’s Whiskey Row and Blake Shelton’s Ole Red, the two-time People’s Choice Award winners are sure to light up the stage as we wait for fireworks to light up the sky.
