Key West Nightlife

Key West Fantasy Fest is going to be lively this year! Charge your creative juices during the craziness that is Fantasy Fest, and enjoy some partying, playing and plain old having a great time! Fantasy Fest occurs near Halloween every year and is now one of the busiest times of the year in Key West. Thousands of people participate, bringing great costumes and great times.

Looking for fun accommodations in Key West near the heart of the action? Ocean Key Resort is your hotel. And when you’re not celebrating at Fantasy Fest, Ocean Key guests can relax at the foot of Duval Street, just steps from the action in a beautiful setting perched over the harbor.

Fantasy Fest has a jam-packed, 10-day schedule that features parades, carnivals, pool parties, luaus, musical performances, open house events, dances, contests, balls, pub crawls and a whole lot more. To say that you won’t be at a loss for something to do at Fantasy Fest is an understatement.

Events can be attended depending on your choice of costume (the Toga party, Bowties and Birthday Suits, Tutu Tuesday, the Venetian Masquerade Ball), activity (the Naughty Bike Ride, the Heroes and Villains 5k Run/Walk) or theme (Cheraoke, Beach Bash, Rock and Roll pool party.) In addition to festivities during the entire week, most of the attendees make sure to stick around for the final weekend for the Fantasy Fest Street Festival and Parade. Get your costumes ready and prepare to get weird!

Staying at the Ocean Key Resort, close to Fantasy Fest in Key West, means you can enjoy all of the crazy activities without a long walk. And when you’re not celebrating, relax in your Keys chic room with a balcony overlooking the water.
