Pensacola Beach Songwriter's Festival

Pensacola Beach will be alive with the sounds of original music performed by the folks who wrote the tunes during the first week of October. With a decade under its belt, the Pensacola Beach Songwriter’s Festival has become a treasured annual favorite, offering performances at nearly two dozen beachside bars, restaurants and other attractions. Attendees can expect to hear great music as well as the stories behind the songs while enjoying some of the best weather of the year along our spectacular beaches.

Welcome and thanks for taking the journey with us! Let the Pensacola Beach Songwriters Festival introduce you to the songwriters who create the songs that inspire our daily lives. Songs create moods that can put smiles on your faces or tears in your eyes. There are emotions that live within us each and every day that a song sometimes has a way of healing.

Hear the stories that inspired the birth of these songs. You will be surprised to learn that the artist on the radio might not be the songwriter. The variety of songwriters is as different as the grains of sand that cover our beautiful pristine beaches. Pensacola Beach Songwriters Festival is your chance to meet the writers and hear the stories behind the songs.

Like the marriage between the lyrics and the melody of a song, the marriage between the beautiful white sands of Pensacola Beach and the songwriters make this the perfect combination to kick back and enjoy. The Pensacola Beach Songwriters Festival appeals to all ages and encourages participation in our songwriting programs.
