A peace sign, VW beach buses, tie-dye shirts and the colored lenses on the sunglasses. These were just some of the items that defined a special period in history. It is a lifestyle that the famous Flora-Bama celebrates each year at their Sandstock party.


They remind everyone to wear your favorite “hippie” attire and head to the Flora-Bama on Aug. 10th when the famous beach bar goes back in time in a tribute to pay homage to the 55th anniversary of the Woodstock Music and Art Fair that would come to define a movement. Pat McClellan, one of the Flora-Bama partners, started the annual party and commented on it's growth. McClellan stated "seeing people of all ages dress and enjoy the music from those days is great."


Festivities begin at noon with all your favorite artists dressing up while performing renditions of their favorite songs made famous by “Creedance Clearwater Revival, The Grateful Dead, Joe Cocker, Janis Joplin, Bob Dylan and other greats from that fabulous era.


Featured artists will include The Funky Lampshades, Burnt Peaches, Johnny Hayes, BAT, Mel Knapp, Chance Neal & Emma Zink, The Big Earl Show, Paxton Peay, Unfortunate Sons, Jesse Duncan and Brittany Bell.
