IMPORTANT **NO REFUND** NOTICE:

Perdido Key Music Festival is a charity event presented by the Mark A. McBride Arts & Music Fund, Playa del Rio RV Resort, Flora Bama, and other sponsors.  PKMF has been hosted at the Playa del Rio RV Resort for its first 10 years, and to allow the festival to grow, PKMF 2026 has been moved to the world-famous Flora Bama.  100% of all proceeds from PKMF 2026 goes to benefit the Frank Brown Foundation for Music, the Frank Brown International Songwriters' Festival, and the Gulf Coast Musicians Medical Fund (see our Charities page for all the organizations and causes that we have helped over the years).  In the event of any occurrence that is out of the organizer's control that causes the festival to be postponed, there will be NO REFUNDS issued, there will be no guarantee of the same band line-up for rescheduled event dates, and there will be no guarantee of the new date or time of year for rescheduling.  All passes issued will be valid for the rescheduled date.  So, it is important to keep your official festival lanyards and passes safe because we will NOT issue replacement passes for any postponed events.  Updates and announcements before and during the weekend of the festival will be made on our Facebook page @PerdidoKeyMusicFestival and on our Instagram @PerdidoKeyMusic.

NO PETS ALLOWED
