40th Annual Boggy Bayou Mullet Festival kicks off tomorrow

The 40^th Annual Boggy Bayou Mullet Festival kicks off Friday at noon and continues through Sunday. The Mullet Festival is famous for unique handmade arts and crafts, thrilling rides and games, flavorful food from fried and smoked mullet to all of your favorite festival staples, and top-notch musical entertainment.  Bring the family and create some memories with us!

Headlining Friday night on the Mullet Festival stage is one the most talented young artists in country music, Chase Bryant.

On Saturday night Justin Moore returns to Boggy Country!  Following his 2013 appearance in Niceville, Moore took home his first ACM award when he was named New Artist of the Year.

Joe Diffie will close out the festival on Sunday evening.  Diffie dominated the charts in the 90s, and Jason Aldean’s hit “1994” introduced him to a whole new generation of fans two decades later.

Also performing on Sunday afternoon will be one of the most popular country groups of the 90s, Confederate Railroad.

Other acts taking the stage include Brassfield Aly, Farewell Angelina and the Troy Laz Band.

Don’t miss special appearances by Chewbacca, Darth Vader and Pikachu Saturday and Sunday from 1pm until 5pm!
