Fantasy Fest, Key West

Posted by JenBurns 28 June 2010

Nickenamed the 'Gay Mardi Gras', Fantasy Fest is a 10-day festival for the most seasoned of hedonists - includes wildly eccentric costumes (and costume parties!), parades, street fairs, and events like the Dungeon of Dark Secrets and Fetishes, Big 'Uns Lunar Lunacy Party, and the Epidermal Arts and Torso Tapestries. It's also the best time of year to experience the mild, but warm Florida weather - everyone should go at least once!
