This will be our 3rd year going. The parade is great lasts for over 2 hours. The floats and costumes are well done. The crowds are tremendous at least 500k from one end to the other. We go with the Parrothead Club and have bleacher seats at the very beginning after the parade ends the bus picks us up and we follow the parade route to Spaghetti Warehouse in Tampa. When you get down closer to the middle the parties, crowds, people on Yachts etc. watching this Parade are unbelievable.
