The Weekend Lineup: April 24-26

Flora-Bama's Interstate Mullet Toss takes over Perdido Key all weekend. Plus Bama Coast Cruisin', Silverhill Heritage Day, and Sunday brunch vibes.

**Friday is a gift -- mostly sunny, 78°F, barely any wind. Saturday and Sunday hedge: high 70s-80s with a one-in-three chance of the afternoon turning dramatic ([NWS](https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=30.25&lon=-87.66)). The weekend's anchor does not care: Flora-Bama's Interstate Mullet Toss runs Friday through Sunday on Perdido Key, and if you have been to a mullet toss, you know the party proceeds through weather up to and including active lightning.**

## Friday

### [Interstate Mullet Toss & Beach Party](/events/interstate-mullet-toss-beach-party-2026-04-24/) -- [Flora-Bama Lounge](/directory/flora-bama-lounge/), $0-$20, 8:00 AM CT (runs through Sunday 4:00 PM)

The big one. Three days of live music, fried mullet, frozen bushwackers, and grown adults flinging dead fish across the Florida-Alabama state line for prizes. Gates open at 8 AM Friday. Get there early on the weekend days if you want parking anywhere near the building -- this one genuinely packs the beach.

### [Bikini & Hot Body Contest](/events/bikini-hot-body-contest-mullet-toss-weekend-friday-2026-04-24/) -- [Flora-Bama Lounge](/directory/flora-bama-lounge/), Included with Mullet Toss admission, 10:00 AM CT Friday (and runs through Saturday 3:00 PM)

Flora-Bama runs the contest during Mullet Toss weekend along with three other weekends each year. Top three finalists split $5,000. Registration happens on-site.

### [Bama Coast Cruisin'](/events/bama-coast-cruisin-2026-04-24/) -- [The Wharf](/directory/the-wharf-entertainment-district/), Free, 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM CT

Classic car rolling show at The Wharf, day two of three (runs Thu-Sat). [Orange Beach](/directory/orange-beach/) weather Friday should be ideal for it -- sunny and high 70s. Free to browse, walk among hundreds of vehicles, and talk shop with owners.

### [Colton Wadkins Live at Portside](/events/colton-wadkins-live-at-portside-2026-04-24/) -- [Portside at The Wharf](/directory/portside-at-the-wharf/), No cover, 6:00 PM - 10:00 PM CT

Live music on the patio at Portside, The Wharf's waterfront bar. Four hours, no cover, open-air setting. A good way to end a Cruisin' Friday without committing to a full dinner-reservation evening.

## Saturday

### [Driving Away Addiction Golf Tournament](/events/2026-driving-away-addiction-golf-tournament-2026-04-25/) -- [Lost Key Golf Club](/directory/lost-key-golf-club/), Registration required, 8:00 AM CT

Charity golf tournament at Lost Key benefiting Pensacola Teen Challenge. 8 AM shotgun start. Saturday's weather shows a 33% chance of thunderstorms -- morning should be fine, but the tournament may race the afternoon clouds.

### [Silverhill Heritage Day](/events/silverhill-heritage-day-2026-04-25/) -- [Silverhill Town Hall](/directory/town-hall/), Free, 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM CT (parade at 10:00 AM)

Annual heritage celebration in downtown Silverhill, honoring the town's Swedish and Czech roots. Parade steps off at 10 AM. Old-school small-town day -- vendors, food, community. Worth the drive if you haven't been.

### [The Fairhope Foodie Walking Tour](/events/the-fairhope-foodie-walking-tour-2026-04-25/) -- Taste of Fairhope, Ticketed, 2:00 PM - 5:00 PM CT

Guided walking tour through [downtown Fairhope](/directory/downtown-fairhope/) stopping at four restaurants -- seafood, local favorites, desserts. Runs rain or shine, which is good because Saturday could get wet. Three hours, small group. Reservations through Taste of Fairhope.

## Sunday

### [Interstate Mullet Toss & Beach Party (Day 3)](/events/interstate-mullet-toss-beach-party-2026-04-24/) -- [Flora-Bama Lounge](/directory/flora-bama-lounge/), $0-$20, continuing through 4:00 PM CT

Closing day of the Mullet Toss. Sunday typically mellows from the Saturday peak but the party runs until 4 PM. 31% chance of storms Sunday per NWS -- outdoor events here usually push through Gulf afternoon showers, but keep an eye on timing if you're driving in.

### [Mobile Bay Maker's Market](/events/mobile-bay-makers-market-2026-04-26/) -- [Mobile Bay Maker's Market](/directory/mobile-bay-makers-market/), Free, 10:00 AM - 3:00 PM CT

Open-air market on Twin Beech Road in Fairhope. Local makers, artisans, small-batch farmers. Good rainy-Sunday hedge -- mostly covered if weather turns, and tight enough to browse in under an hour if you just want a break from the house.

### [Kyle Brady at LuLu's Gulf Shores](/events/kyle-brady-at-lulus-gulf-shores-2026-04-26/) -- [LuLu's Gulf Shores](/directory/lulus-gulf-shores/), No cover, 5:00 PM - 9:00 PM CT

Alabama native Kyle Brady plays coastal folk and roots-rock at LuLu's. Four-hour set, no cover, waterfront. Late-afternoon sun into evening is prime timing for LuLu's patio -- and if Sunday storms move through earlier, the deck should be dry by showtime.
