One of the biggest parties in the South each year is Memorial Weekend Pensacola, where thousands of gayfolk drive from all over the southern U.S. to party on the gorgeous beaches of the Gulf of Mexico.
Attendees set up tents on the beach and hang out for days (no overnight sleeping allowed on the beach), and the big parties at night feature celebrity DJs.
Other trendy parties have come and gone, but this is a good one, with a good mix of all genders and ages and every other type of person.
