2021 Lobsterfest Street Fair Cancellation
As a result of Tropical Storm Fred and its forecasted winds, heavy rain and flooding, we must sadly announce the 2021 edition of the Key West Lobsterfest Street Fair presented by Corona and Republic National Distributors scheduled for Saturday, August 14, 2021, will not occur as planned.
The events surrounding the street fair will still run as scheduled. After careful consideration of public safety, we have made the decision to cancel the street fair portion of the festival. We look forward to next summer when we will present the Festival during the opening of the next lobster season, August 11-14, 2022.
Refunds for arts and crafts booths will be processed immediately. There is no need to contact our office. Refunds will be sent to the original credit card.
