Join us for the 12th annual Beer in the Bushes — a swingin' celebration of community and the end of another island season! We'll have craft beer tastings from local breweries, live music, and food truck offerings, all included in the price of admission. Proceeds directly support our mission to protect and care for Southwest Florida's coastal ecosystems!
Individual tickets will go on sale on Feb. 25 at 10 a.m.
Squirrel Nut Zippers
You'll want to swing by and check out all of the action as we twirl and twist the night away to the sounds of the Squirrel Nut Zippers. Put on your dancing shoes and wear the swingiest clothes you can find because you won't want to sit this one out.
An American swing and jazz band formed in 1993, Squirrel Nut Zippers rocketed from the underground scene of Chapel Hill, NC, to the national stage.
The band's music is an infectious blend of Delta blues, gypsy jazz, 1930s–era swing, klezmer, and Southern storytelling. They found commercial success during the swing revival of the late 1990s with their 1996 single "Hell."
In addition to great music, guests will enjoy a variety of food and beverage options, including beer and wine tastings, soft drinks and water, snacks, and dinner offerings.
