Pre-event Official Meetup at the Chart Room

Ease into the weekend with an informal gathering at the legendary Chart Room inside the Pier House Resort. On Wednesday from 5:00 to 8:00 PM, you’re invited to mix and mingle with the Key West Parrot Heads and fellow attendees before the festival officially kicks off. This historic hideaway—where a certain island-loving troubadour once pulled up a barstool—sets the perfect tone for what's to come. Raise a glass, swap a few stories, and meet just a few friends.
