Put-in-Bay Days in Key West

Put-in-Bay Days 2027 at Venues Throughout Key West

Put-in-Bay Days in Key West 2027 returns February 10–14, 2027, bringing the music, friendships, and island-party spirit of Put-in-Bay, Ohio to venues throughout Key West, Florida. This five-day celebration connects two beloved island communities: the Lake Erie summer music scene and Key West’s warm winter live entertainment circuit.

Built around live music in Key West, familiar performers, traveling fans, and off-season island energy, Put-in-Bay Days creates a roaming festival atmosphere across town. Instead of one single stage, the celebration traditionally spreads through multiple Key West venues, giving visitors and returning fans a chance to enjoy shows, reunions, sing-alongs, and late-night island storytelling in true Put-in-Bay fashion.

Past Put-in-Bay Days celebrations have featured artists associated with the Put-in-Bay Ohio music scene, including Ray Fogg, Reese Dailey, Pat Shepard, Nick Brownell, Kari Wolf, Jack Wolf, Pete Jarvis, Sloppy Seconds, Ross Brown, Kyle Smithers, Jeff Clark, and LauraLea & TrippFabulous. Previous host venues have included Rick’s Key West, Durty Harry’s, Sloppy Joe’s Bar, Schooner Wharf Bar, Willie T’s, General Horseplay, and Key West Theater.

The 2026 celebration also included A Tribute to the Songs of Pat Dailey at Key West Theater, featuring Ray Fogg, Reese Dailey, and special guests. That connection keeps Pat Dailey’s island music legacy close to the heart of the event, linking Put-in-Bay’s Lake Erie traditions with Key West’s own deep love of coastal songs, barroom ballads, and tropical storytelling.

The full 2027 artist lineup, venue schedule, showtimes, and ticket details have not yet been fully released. Fans should watch for upcoming announcements from Put-in-Bay Days and Ray Fogg as the February celebration approaches.
