Sand In My Boots Music Festival: Country Music On the Gulf

Formerly known as Hangout Fest, the Sand in My Boots Music Festival has brought a new sound to the beach,featuring top country artists in a laid-back, Gulf-front setting. Held right on the shoreline in Gulf Shores, it’s become a favorite spring event for both locals and travelers.

About the Event

• Season: Takes place each spring
• Artists: Past lineups include major names like Morgan Wallen

• It’s a casual, come-as-you-are music festival with ocean views, good food, and great company, all just steps from the water.

Festival Highlights

Here are a few guest-favorite moments from this year’s event:

• Sunset Performances: Hearing “Sand in My Boots” as the sun sets over the Gulf is a core memory.
