Labor Day and Bathtub Boat Races

This weekend calls for kicking back and relaxing. Labor Day weekend is a chance to catch up after the start of the school year or settle down from the summer rush. It is time to regroup and get ready for a busy fall ahead.

No matter how you spend your weekend, you must at least consider checking out the Bamboo Willies Annual Bathtub Boat Race.

If you haven’t seen or participated in the race, you’ve got a chance this Labor Day weekend! We wouldn’t miss it if we were you.

Picture this:

You have your bathtub, paddles, and ‘A’ team.

Powered by hot wings, live music, and your fans cheering on the beach.

Your team paddles with all their strength through the sound while the sun blazes your path ahead.

Which team will conquer with the winning tub?

The Annual Bathtub Race has been a Pensacola Beach tradition since the early 1980s. It is a family-friendly event that raises money for Pensacola Beach Elementary School. The race is held each year on Sunday of Labor Day weekend.

You can expect two days of live music featuring over 10 bands on two separate stages. The final night is closed out with an impressive fireworks display.

The Labor Day Music Fest will feature The Springs from Nashville, TN starting the day off at noon. This is a show you will want to see if you love country music! This is a free event.

Bamboo Willies is located at 400 Quietwater Beach Rd., Pensacola Beach, FL.

Work hard, play harder! Happy Labor Day.
