(Foley, Alabama) – Labor Day Weekend is here, and OWA has a full lineup of events to help you celebrate the holiday! Start your weekend with the return of the OWA Labor Day Car Show, featuring more than 100 classic cars spread throughout the streets of Downtown OWA. Plan to spend your whole day, as we have an entire weekend of kid’s activities, live music, and an epic firework show to close out your evening.
Returning for its fifth year, the OWA Labor Day Car Show is back on Saturday, September 3, with all proceeds benefiting the Foley First Baptist Church! During this picturesque event, cars of all makes and models will be on display throughout the charming streets of Downtown OWA. With hot rods and custom builds lining the streets, this is one car show you won’t want to miss. Registration opens at 6:30am, with the car show beginning at 9am. Closing out the event, the awards ceremony will be at the OWA Island Amphitheater at 4pm, with trophies for every decade from 1920-now.
The fun continues throughout the weekend with kid’s activities, including complimentary hand-print t-shirts and an interactive scavenger hunt throughout the retail and dining locations in Downtown OWA. Pick up your scavenger hunt map at Paint Party Studios from 2-6pm and turn in your completed map for a fun patriotic surprise! Live music takes center stage on OWA Island, with Brandon Giles kicking off the party on Saturday, September 3, at 6pm, and The Chee Weez continuing the celebration beginning at 8pm. Live music returns on Sunday, September 4, with the Gulf Coast Saxophone Ensemble performing at the Downtown OWA Splash Pad at 3pm, and OWA Island will showcase the talents of Colby Swift at 5pm and Austin Forman closing out the event at 7:30pm.
