June is ending and the last weekend of the month brings a variety of fun events to keep you, your family and tourists busy across the Gulf Coast.

This weekend's list of top events includes music, culture, comedy and environmental volunteering. Head to Orange Beach for the Expect Excellence's Rock Tribute. There are three showtimes to work with your schedule. Want to get a little history and culture? The Daphne History Museum has extended hours every Thursday all summer long for a special Summer Nights at the Museum event. There are two big shows at The Wharf Amphitheater this weekend as well. Slip on your boots and cowboy hat and spend the evening with Dierks Bentley. If laughs are more your style, you are in luck because Bert Kreischer and his group of comedian friends roll into Orange Beach Sunday. No worries. There are even more events below.
