Music and dancing have always been something that has brought people and cultures together for ages. Every year, Key West celebrates our local songwriters and music creators with the Annual Key West Songwriters Festival. Come and stay with us at The Cabana Inn and take part in all of the musical festivities as our community comes together for good tunes.

What Is The Key West Songwriters Festival?

Every May, you will find Key West comes alive with a full five days of music, dancing, and entertainment. Enjoy over fifty shows with roughly two hundred performers and artists taking the stage. This event has been a local favorite, and massive draw for tourists from all over since 1977 and has grown into an epic affair that you will not want to miss. The Key West Songwriters Festival is the largest festival of its kind in the entire world, so it is easy to see why this is such a grand occasion for visitors and locals alike.

How To Participate

Many of the shows are free to attend, and this makes attendance easy and even more desirable for those interested in participating. There are a few select shows that require advanced admission purchasing, and the tickets can be found on the event website along with times and line-ups. With so many artists squeezed into only five days, many locations take part in offering their stages for the artists performing. There is a full schedule that includes the times and stages of each artist on the Key West Songwriters Festival website so you can map out your days, so you do not miss your favorites.the cabana
