John's Pass Seafood & Music Festival
35th Annual John's Pass Seafood & Music Festival - Proudly Sponsored by the Crown Automotive Group
Serving Clearwater, Tampa, Largo, St. Petersburg, Palm Harbor, FL
The Annual John's Pass Seafood and Music Festival returns this year with more free festivities. As a major sponsor, Crown Automotive Group invites you to enjoy local delicacies, music, and more during the last weekend in October. The Friday Halloween block party is the largest in our area.
Our organization is proud to support this complimentary event that brings so much fun to area residents. On the Madeira Beach Boardwalk and adjoining streets, the John’s Pass Village Association keeps the music playing from October 27 through October 30. You'll find classic rock on Thursday, country on Saturday, and beach music on Sunday. Three stages offer a variety of styles. The Friday night block party is a chance to dance the night away. This evening is also about costumes as adults compete for some $5,000 in prizes. On Saturday evening, a Michael Jackson impersonator will be followed by the Thriller Zombie dancers from around the world.
Join Us October 27 - 30, 2016 in Beautiful Maderia Beach, FL
It's easy to find the fun. There are more than ten public parking lots serving the festival in either Madeira Beach or Treasure Island. Area shuttles can get you close to the action.
Fresh Seafood
Along the Boardwalk, seafood vendors take center stage with your favorite area delicacies. You'll find grouper sandwiches, conch fritters, gator bites, and shrimp tacos, just to name a few. Area restaurants and bars will also be offering their own seafood dishes. During the Halloween Block Party, there's a full bar and a beer truck to supply the crowd with adult libations.
Family Friendly Events
An art and craft show will add to the day's festival atmosphere. A fishing contest and chef cook-off are also part of the fun. Kids will want to be on hand to meet Aquaman on Thursday or the SuperVillians on Sunday. During the day on Saturday, children can go trick or treating along the Festival route. They can also participate in a kid's costume contest on Saturday afternoon.
Live Entertainment
Whenever you visit, you are invited to stop by the Crown Automotive Group tent. Our knowledgeable staff will be on hand to show you some of our biggest and best vehicles. For truck lovers, there's the GMC Sierra Luxury Crew Cab. Families may be more interested in the classy Nissan Maxima sedan or the spacious three-row Honda Pilot.
