Hangout Festival Hits the Panhandle Beach This Week



Gulf Shores, Alabama
The Hangout festival happens this week in Gulf Shores, Alabama, (just over the Florida state line, west of Pensacola) with a heavy-hitting roster of national touring acts, including My Morning Jacket, Foo Fighters, Zac Brown band, Beck, Umphrey's McGee and more (for the full lineup, read on.) The fest runs Thursday through Sunday, and you can check out the schedule here.  3-day general admission (including fees) is $280. No single-day tickets are being sold.

This is not a camping festival, so you will need to find a place to stay. There are shuttle buses (for a small fee) to take concert goers to and from the venue.There are also bike racks outside the entrance for those who want to pedal to and fro.

Also, be aware, that, although this takes place on the beach, the organizers block off the water and do not allow concert-goers to swim or boat there. You cannot bring umbrellas, chairs, coolers, or sun shades into the venue.
