The Pensacola Beach Chamber of Commerce and the Santa Rosa Island Authority will host a Mardi Gras-themed “Snowbird Social” on Wednesday, Feb. 19, from 4 to 6 p.m. at Crabs on the Beach. Attendees are encouraged to wear their most colorful disguise to “Let the Good Times Fly.”

This event is a great way for seasonal tourists and vacationers to meet, mingle and learn more about what’s happening on Pensacola Beach.

Entertainment will be provided by DJ Salty and light hors d’oeuvres will be served, sponsored by Emmanuel Sheppard & Condon. Instead of traditional vendor tables, Island businesses will be contributing to welcome bags filled with swag and information, ensuring attendees leave with valuable resources and goodies.


The original Snowbird Beach Bash, originally scheduled for January 23, was unfortunately canceled due to a snowstorm. However, it has been rescheduled and transformed into this vibrant Mardi Gras-themed bash.

Entry is $1 per person and all proceeds will benefit the Pensacola Beach Jr. Lifeguard Program.

The Snowbird Social is sponsored by the Santa Rosa Island Authority and the Pensacola Beach Chamber of Commerce.

About the Santa Rosa Island Authority

Pensacola Beach is owned by Escambia County, Fla., and is under the direction of the Santa Rosa Island Authority (SRIA). The SRIA was created by the Florida legislature in 1947 under Chapter 24500. The SRIA does not receive tax support from the taxpayers of the county. It is fully funded from lease fees collected from business and residences on the beach. The Island Authority board is made up of six members; five are named by members of the Escambia County Board of Commissioners whose term is the same as the commissioner who appointed them. Registered voters on Pensacola Beach elect the sixth member. The elected member’s term is two years.
