Gasparilla Pirate Fest

Located along Bayshore Blvd and Downtown Tampa just minutes from The Barrymore Hotel Tampa Riverwalk.

Invasions are welcome in Tampa Bay! Gasparilla Pirate Fest returns every January, bringing the spirit of pirates past and glittering treasures for visitors and locals to plunder. The 4.5-mile parade route, led by the captain and his Ye Mystic Krewe, is followed by over a hundred floats winding through historic Bayshore Blvd and downtown Tampa, creating the third-largest parade in the United States.
