Play Music on the Porch Day is a worldwide celebration of peace and music held annually on the last Saturday of August. Musicians in 70+ countries and 1,000+ cities participate by going outside and playing music — on porches, in yards, and in neighborhoods.
In Historic St. Andrews, Panama City, FL, we celebrate with live acoustic performances throughout the neighborhood on Beck Avenue and surrounding streets from 3 to 6 PM. It started as a simple idea: What if for one day everything stopped, and we all just listened to the music?
