3rd Annual Perdido Key Martini Festival

11/07/2009

1:00pm-5:00pm. There’s probably no other beverage that commands the reputation for prestige, elegance, class, or panache, as the Martini. This tasty and classic concoction has an air of mystery and attraction, and will be showcased in an upscale event like no other. Grey Goose, Three Olives and Premier Beverage have once again put together a “do not miss” one day only event located in the Villagio on Perdido Key. With an estimated 24 booths to visit with an all-inclusive sample of premium spirits and martinis the crowds will have plenty to do. Along with the opportunity to purchase bottles at some serious savings there will be local art and craft vendors, food, and door prizes. The most anticipated part of the day will be “The 2009 Gulf Coast Bartender Showdown” at 2:30 p.m. From across the Coast, Bars and Restaurants will enter bartenders to compete for cash, trophies, prizes and the all important bragging rights in a chance to see who can prepare the BEST Martini on the Gulf Coast. Ticket proceeds benefit several local charities.

Hundreds of colorful four-foot long cascades will be displayed on bridges and balconies, in baskets and containers throughout the Gardens.

The Great Lawn’s dramatic border will be a feast for the eyes. Bellingrath’s mum display is one of the grandest in the country and all the cascades are grown at Bellingrath.

Fort Morgan Area Information

The land of Fort Morgan is so pristine, you can imagine being the first to discover it. Scrub oaks hide colorful chameleons and nesting robins. Brown pelicans drift serenely overhead, then suddenly plunge in the water. The stars crowd the night sky in a spectacular display. To walk along the shores of Fort Morgan is to discover a place where time has seemingly distanced itself from the business of life. Perhaps it is the shape of the land, a long peninsula, that makes this place unique. Or perhaps something magical drifted in on the breeze. And simply never left.

If it is privacy, pure and natural, that you seek, Fort Morgan is the beach for you. Off-the-beaten path, Fort Morgan’s allure is undeniable. Beautiful beaches provide fun and unspoiled vistas. Nature preserves afford safe haven for wildlife and a birder’s paradise. Civil War-era monuments offer the chance to reflect on our not-too-distant past. For those in a more active mood, championship golf courses await. And great restaurants invite you to sample the local culinary treasures.
