Boys WILL be boys when Tropical Heat, Key West’s hottest event for men, cranks up the temperature on Wednesday, August 13 – Sunday, August 17.
Not for the faint-hearted, this all–male, all–adult, fever-pitched festival includes dozens of decadent events ranging from clothing-optional pool parties, dance parties, and cruises, to drag shows, drag brunches, and themed events at island clubs.
With all-male theme activities, pool parties, and adult-oriented entertainment, it’s a steamy five days, rain or shine.
But hold onto your beach balls! Key West isn’t just about the boys. It’s also the country’s premier LGBTQ+ vacation destination.
As the last rays of summer start to fade, our tiny island plays host to Womenfest 2025. This annual hormone-infused festival, which takes place from Wednesday, September 3 – Sunday, September 7, celebrates empowered sisterhood and attracts thousands of lesbians, bisexuals, transwomen and friends from across the globe.
Regaled as one of the HOTTEST parties for women 21+, Womenfest boasts five days of sunset sails, beach bashes, art exhibitions, live performances, dance parties, and more.
