Gasparilla Pirate Fest

2:00pm-5:30pm Gasparilla Parade of Pirates

Each January, Tampa Bay transforms into a pirate’s playground as the legendary Gasparilla Pirate Fest takes over the city. Inspired by the lore of José Gaspar, this high-energy celebration invites locals and visitors alike to don their best pirate gear and revel in the pageantry.

The festivities center around a spectacular 4.5-mile parade, featuring the dramatic arrival of the Ye Mystic Krewe and their captain as they "invade" the city. With over 100 elaborately decorated floats, marching bands, and costumed crews winding along scenic Bayshore Boulevard into the heart of downtown, it’s no wonder Gasparilla ranks as the third-largest parade in the country.
