KWSF: Saturday – Bloody Mary Bash – 11AM
Kick off your Saturday in true island style at the Bloody Mary Bash, one of the most spirited daytime traditions of the Key West Songwriters Festival. Hosted inside the iconic Key West Theater, this late-morning gathering blends handcrafted cocktails, songwriter storytelling, and an intimate listening-room vibe that sets the tone for a full day of music across Key West.
From 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM on May 2, 2026, festivalgoers are invited to sip, savor, and settle into a curated showcase of talented Nashville hitmakers and rising artists. The Bloody Mary Bash is more than just a cocktail event—it’s a front-row seat to the creative heartbeat of the festival, where songs are shared the way they were written: raw, personal, and unforgettable.
Expect a lively yet laid-back atmosphere as some of the festival’s standout songwriters take the stage in a round-style format, trading stories behind the lyrics and delivering stripped-down performances that highlight the craft of songwriting itself. Paired with expertly mixed Bloody Marys and a welcoming indoor setting, it’s the perfect blend of music and morning indulgence.
Whether you're easing into your festival weekend or continuing the momentum from Friday night, this event offers a refreshing reset before the evening’s headline performances across Duval Street and beyond.
