The 50TH Orange Beach Festival of Art

News Staff • March 4, 2024

This year is the 50th anniversary of the event

Orange Beach Festival of Art

It’s the golden anniversary for the Orange Beach Festival of Art. A remarkable nod to the world of art as onlookers will see in the sophistication of the 100 truly fine artists and high-quality vendors featured over the weekend. A Gulf Coast festival wouldn't be complete without a bite to eat and the OBFOA highlights all the perfect parts of coastal cuisine inspired by local chefs tailored for such a special anniversary as the 50th.


Live music on the lawn chosen specifically for the occasion. Plan to stay the day and enjoy the beauty all around the Coastal Art Center and bring the kids to see the Kids Art Alley and maybe make something to take home. Satellite parking will be available as well as $5 shuttles and golf cart parking onsite, all well-behaved pets on a leash are welcome.


This fine arts festival is completely free with music and entertainment featured on two stages. You can be a part of it by volunteering or purchasing art through our Patron of the Arts program. There are multiple parking options.
