Destination Panama City

We're incredibly proud to share that we successfully delivered much-needed supplies to those impacted by Hurricane Helene with the help of the Mexico Beach Community Development Council. Thanks to the generosity of our communities, we were able to gather essential items like food, water, toiletries, and more to support families in Taylor County and surrounding areas as they begin rebuilding their lives. This effort wouldn’t have been possible without the outpouring of support from individuals and businesses alike. A huge thank you to everyone who donated and helped make this drive a success. ?? The strength of our community truly shines in times of need. Together, we are #850Strong. ?? #CommunitySupport #HurricaneRelief #GivingBack #StrongerTogether #DonationDrive

It's time to celebrate the 36th annual Oktoberfest at Downtown Panama City! ?? Excited to share that we recently had the opportunity to chat with WMBB News 13 about all the Oktoberfest festivities scheduled for this weekend. Tonight we're launching our first ever Volksmarch where patrons get a passport stamped at locations with German offerings for a chance to win an Oktoberfest prize basket. Tomorrow Harrison Avenue will transform into an Oktoberfest extravaganza for all ages. Grab your dirndl or lederhosen and join us. We have added a Relief Drive for our neighbors impacted by Hurricane Helene. Drop your donations off at the Destination Panama City tent near the main stage. Prost! #LovePC

Just wrapped up a live radio interview on 92.5 WPAP discussing the 36th annual Oktoberfest at Downtown Panama City. We couldn't tell if Dr. Shane and Tess were more excited about the Volksmarch on Friday, September 27 from 6pm - 10pm or the Festival on Saturday, September 28 from 3pm - 9pm. Join us in Historic Downtown Panama City this weekend - where Bavarian traditions meet local charm in an unforgettable celebration! #WhereEventsSetSail #925WPAP #MeetMeDowntown #radiointerview

Today our team had the privilege to attend the Red Carpet Groundbreaking to commemorate the beginning of the Martin Theatre Development. The fully immersive event featured a dapper theme while celebrating the future of the Martin Theatre, Tennessee House and The Ritz. Many downtown businesses joined in on the celebration honoring the Martin Theatre Development by offering "red carpet" deals and features for the night of the event. In addition to the theater renovations, the expansion will include a beautiful lounge area and event space. We are excited to celebrate this momentous occasion in our community! #LovePC #MeetMeDowntown #WhereMeetingsSetSail
