March on Pensacola Beach is more than Spring Break. It’s more than Alabama and Missouri license plates crossing the 3-mile bridge and a reminder that we get to live where others vacation. For locals, it’s the start of Blue Angels season. Nearly every Sunday starting in March we wait to welcome home Pensacola royalty.
We patiently extend our Sunday Funday for five blue and gold F-18s in perfect formation to zoom past us for the most magical, Pensacola style start to the week.
A Pensacola Beach Buzz — a right of passage for us locals and the countdown to Red, White and Blues week.
We take our Blue Angels, our hometown heroes, very seriously around here. We are their neighbors, advocates and biggest cheerleaders. We pray when they’re touring away and we don’t take it for granted when they return home. We honor their patriotism and are inspired by their excellence.
At Local Pulse we honor this shared love. For a brief moment all eyes are focused on the sky. All minds distracted from current worries. And all sense of wonder restored. For these reasons we started our favorite hometown highlight reels – “How to Blue Angels” – a fun, fast-paced giveaway series honoring the legends of the sky: the U.S. Navy Blue Angels.
In a few weeks Pensacola Beach will once again transform into front-row seats for the ultimate airshow. To help you celebrate, we’re launching three weeks full of giveaways TODAY, June 23, 2025!
These giveaways will feature everything you need to live your BEST AIRSHOW LIFE – from beach gear, snacks, and most importantly, that elusive VIP parking pass from the Hampton Inn on Pensacola Beach.
Because here in Pensacola, we don’t just watch the Blue Angels — we listen for the roar that is the soundtrack of our home and the flight of good memories! Their roar is the rhythm of our July, and to us, it’s the sound of everything good!
It’s officially time to start the countdown to Pensacola’s Red, White and Blues week and we are going to make sure you’re ready for it. Follow along our instagram account @localpulsepensacola for your chances to win thousands of dollars worth of prizes from local businesses that cherish the Blues as much as you.
Good luck and happy ‘How to Blue Angels’ month!
