Schooner Wharf Bar

Delicious food, island-style drinks, live music, and a FREE raffle set the stage for an unforgettable day on the Harborwalk. The real show? Homemade boats built from minimal materials (two sheets of plywood, a roll of duct tape, and some fasteners) racing — and often sinking — in spectacular fashion!

Want to join the madness? Enter your vessel for a shot at awesome prizes and bragging rights. Whether you're building a boat or just here to soak up the fun, it's a day full of creativity, comedy, and community.

Don't miss this magical nautical display of holiday lights on board every manner of watercraft in Key West Harbor. The judges stand is located at Schooner Wharf, 202 William St. Viewing is available from all along the Harbor Walk. The parade starts at 8 p.m.
