Mark your calendars for the 3rd annual Jimmy Buffett Day and Margaritaville Day of Service on Friday, September 4, 2026!

During Labor Day Weekend, Margaritaville properties will celebrate the third annual Jimmy Buffett Day with events, programs, room packages (for stay dates August 3–September 27), limited edition retail offerings, beverage specials with commemorative cups (September 4–11), and more in support of Singing for Change, created by Jimmy Buffett, and other charitable organizations.

We hope you will find your way to a Margaritaville location during the celebration, but if you can’t, we encourage you to find a way to be of service to make an impact in your community.

This moment gives us the opportunity to recognize Jimmy Buffett’s legacy throughout Margaritaville by giving back to our communities. Most importantly, we honor Jimmy by doing what he did best — bringing people together, making a positive impact in meaningful ways, and carrying forward his enduring spirit as we "keep the party going".
