The Summer Soirée will take place on Friday, July 25, from 6 to 8:30 p.m. at the Orange Beach Event Center. This first-time event encourages families to come dressed in their “Sunday Best” to enjoy a night of celebration. Tickets are $20 per person and space is limited, so early purchase is recommended.


The evening is designed to help families connect and celebrate the summer in a joyful and elegant atmosphere. Dinner will be served on-site, and a DJ will provide music for dancing. Kids and adults will also enjoy various games and activities throughout the evening.


Attendees will receive professional photos to take home, making it easy to remember the evening for years to come. City officials say this event is just one of many ways they are working to create more inclusive and engaging activities for the community.


Tickets are now available at the Orange Beach Event Center’s
ticketing website. Due to space limitations, only a set number of tickets will be sold.
