The Market Shops 9th Annual Bloody Mary Festival

Join us on Saturday, October 12 for the The Market Shops 9th Annual Bloody Mary Festival benefiting Habitat for Humanity – Walton County. The annual event will feature unlimited tastes of South Walton’s most creative and innovative bloody marys made with Distillery 98’s Dune Laker Vodka and served by the finest restaurants and bars on the Emerald Coast.

*Restaurants, bars, or catering companies interested in competing in this year's event, please email [email protected]*

For a $60 donation to attend, guests are invited from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. to enjoy unlimited tastes of South Walton’s most coveted bloody marys along with access to food, shopping, live music, a DJ, SEC Football, craft beer, prosecco, and much more!

*Disclaimer: All guests wishing to enter the festival must have a ticket. Kids 14 and under get in free. If pre-sale tickets sell out, no tickets will be sold at the door.*

A panel of select food critics and local celebrities will judge each bloody mary to select the winners for the most delicious and most creative. There will also be a highly coveted first-, second-, and third-place People’s Choice Award that is selected by each guest in attendance.

Apart from the bloody marys, there will also be plenty of food from the various restaurants located directly in The Market Shops.

For the non-bloody mary aficionado, there will be local craft brews, spiked seltzer, and prosecco from the Bubbly Bar, along with water at the Hydration Station. A lounge area with additional seating and cornhole games will be set up on the main lawn, along with SEC football streaming on the big screen.

While sipping bloody marys, guests can enjoy an interactive photo booth, music by DJ Dad, and a cigar bar by Shore Thing Cigars. Headlining the event will be a live performance from the local 80’s rock band, Catalyst.
