Savor the flavor of the Florida Keys at the 28th Annual Key West Lobsterfest, the island’s biggest and tastiest summer celebration. Held from August 5th through August 9th, 2026, this five-day festival marks the opening of the Florida Spiny Lobster season with an island-wide party.
The festivities kick off with a traditional lobster boil and culminate in the massive Duval Street Fair, where local restaurants serve up fresh lobster prepared every way imaginable—from grilled tails to decadent lobster mac and cheese. Visitors can enjoy live music from diverse local bands, browse artisan vendor booths, and soak in the vibrant summer vibes of Key West. Best of all, the event gives back to the community by raising funds for the Key West High School Scholarship Fund.
