Fantasy Fest Market Friday, October 27 Offers Shopping, Music, Food Trucks

The “Fantasy Market”, an officially sanctioned Fantasy Fest event, is Friday, October 27 from 10 am to 3 pm, and will offer shopping, costumes & accessories, fun entertainment and food and beverage. Vendors, makers, artists, crafters, photographers, jewelry, apparel, costumers, toys, non-profits, sponsors, culinary, food trucks and more will be set up in the grass near the splash park at the picturesque Truman Waterfront Park overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.

“We know Fantasy Festers appreciate this shopping experience that eliminates the carnival atmosphere and instead concentrates on quality, variety and local flair — still with a really fun party vibe” said Sean K, organizer with Daily Plan-it, the event management firm tapped by Fantasy Fest to take on the endeavor. “There’s plenty of time to enjoy the park, shop, grab lunch and still get ready for the Masquerade March or whatever evening parties are on the agenda,” he said.

Party 105.7 FM will be onsite doing a live remote and their DJ spinning tunes alongside a giant twister game, a full bar by Great Events Catering available and the Fantasy Fest official merchandise booth will be open for souvenirs and t-shirts. Guests can expect a glimpse of Royalty as various Kings and Queens of Fantasy Fest past and present make appearances throughout the day. Attendees who spend $100 collectively at any of the Fantasy Market vendors can bring their receipts to redeem for a free vintage Fantasy Fest t-shirt (while supplies last) and will be entered to win 2 tickets to the VIP Parade Suite at the La Concha hotel for the Saturday evening Bud Light Fantasy Fest Parade. The winner will be drawn and announced at 3 pm at the conclusion of the Market.

The Fantasy Market, an official Fantasy Fest event, is cohosted by the Key West Artisan Market and the Truman Waterfront Farmers Market. The show is free for all ages, accessible and a pet friendly event. Metered convenient parking (free with residential sticker), bike & scooter parking available. The park is located on the free Duval Loop bus route. To learn more visit www.fantasyfest.com
