Landing at Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport just got a little more festive. The Wheels Up Summer Music Series is back for its sixth consecutive year, treating travelers to live music right as they arrive at the Panama City Beach-area gateway.

The recurring program has become a beloved warm-weather tradition at the airport, turning the often-hectic arrivals experience into something closer to a welcome party for visitors heading to the Emerald Coast.

Few things say "vacation has officially started" quite like stepping off a plane and into a live performance — and ECP has made that a signature part of its summer identity over the past half-decade.
