TripSmarter.Com Spring Break 2012 Report!

SB12!

It's March and that can only mean one thing...Spring Break 2012 is here!

It's a little breezy today, but the sun is out and shining! The next week looks pretty good weather-wise. Mid-to-high seventies and sunny for most of the week! Check out the ten-day forecast here.

MTV won't be back to PCB this year... but who needs them anyway?! Our local clubs and venues have stepped up BIG TIME and brought in some awesome acts this year. Luke Bryan, Eric Church, DJ Khaled, Yelawolf, DJ Unk, Ying Yang Twins, and many others will be performing live in and around Panama City Beach for Spring Break 2012. And...if previous years are any indication, new bands and artists will be added in the coming weeks.

Tomorrow is Panama City Beach's World's Largest Bikini Parade World Record Attempt. We're going to head out there and take some photos...hopefully we'll get those posted tomorrow afternoon for you! If you're in town, make sure you come out and join in! The parade starts at Harpoon Harry's at 11:30am.

That's about it for now. We'll be updating this thread very often with new events, concerts, contests, weather reports, photos, and much more. We invite you to do the same!

SB12!

Well, here we are! Right smack dab in the middle of another Spring Break peak week in Panama City Beach!

The beaches, clubs, and roads are packed with Spring Breakers from all over the country and every concert or event we've been to for the last few days has been crazy awesome!

Let's see...first a little recap. Luke Bryan played not one but TWO free shows yesterday. First, inside of Walmart and then one later that day at Spinnaker. Both shows were NUTS! Luke has another show today at Spinnaker...so, if you're in town, MAKE SURE YOU DON'T MISS IT!

This week has also seen concerts by the Cataracs and Eric Church...both of which were insane!

Alright, enough about the past...let's talk about what's coming up! Like I said, Luke Bryan is playing at Spinnaker TODAY. Also today, Audrina Patridge will be hosting a Maxim Party at Boardwalk that starts in...oh, two hours or so! Tomorrow has DJ Unk performing at Chateau and Yung Chris at Club La Vela! So, lots of stuff to do!

Alright, now for my favorite part of the SB Report...photos! We've been out getting photos all Spring Break long and we're posting them as fast as we can in our Spring Break 2012 Photo Gallery!
