At 4:30 pm, come enjoy a dive-in movie at Big Water Bay on the big screen in Tropic Falls.*
Returning for its sixth year, the OWA Labor Day Car Show is back on Saturday, August 31st! During this picturesque fall event, cars of all makes and models will be on display throughout the charming streets of Downtown OWA. With hot rods and custom builds from all decades lining the streets, this car show is bound to have something that catches your eye! Check out the details here: link to car show landing page.
Stick around after the Car Show on Saturday, September 1st, for lawn games and a free live outdoor concert! Join us on OWA Island for live music from Jenna McClelland at 5:30 pm and Brandon Giles at 7:30 pm. PLUS, round off the night with epic fireworks show at 8:50 pm, synchronized with patriotic music playing throughout the property. The fireworks will go off at 8:50 pm sharp and can be seen in the air over Downtown OWA & Tropic Falls.
On Sunday, we won’t be slowing down the fun! There will be kid activities at Tropic Falls and a complimentary Red, White, and Red Popsicles at the Native Treasures Alcove. More live music will follow, starting at 4:30 pm with Duhe and Daboys. Closing out the night, Tobacco Rd band at 6pm will be performing a live blend of country-rock.
