Beachtober Beats

Ride the sound waves to Sip Yard October 2026

The Beachtober Beats concert series is set to return in 2026, bringing another season of beachside Friday-night performances. Swap Friday night lights for Friday night concerts by the sea this fall during the Beachtober Beats concert series at Sip Yard Port Aransas. The series will kick off on September 26 and run all the way through Halloween, so you can have the waviest, spookiest, grooviest month of the year!

These featured artists represent the 2025 Beachtober Beats lineup. A new lineup for 2026 will be announced soon. Stay tuned for updated performance details.
