Where's the best live music in the Florida Keys?

Duval Street in Key West for the highest density. Most bars on the strip have a band most nights. For something less crowded, the Lorelei and Morada Bay in Islamorada both have steady waterfront music schedules. Snappers and Sundowners cover the Upper Keys.

Is there live music in the Keys during the day?

Most weekends, yes. Brunches and lunch sets are common at waterfront bars. Sunset shows are the most reliable: Mallory Square in Key West, the Lorelei in Islamorada, and Sundowners in Key Largo all build their schedule around the sunset crowd.

🎵 Live Music Events

Find live music events across the Florida Keys

Live music in the Florida Keys runs every night somewhere from Key Largo down to Key West. The densest scene is Duval Street, where you can hear a different band every couple blocks. Up the Keys, it's more concentrated: Lorelei and Morada Bay in Islamorada, the Marathon waterfront, Snappers and Sundowners in Key Largo. Most of it is local: singer-songwriters, beach bands, the same circle of touring acts you'd find anywhere on the Gulf Coast. Bigger names play during Hemingway Days, Fantasy Fest, and the various seafood-festival weekends. Sunday afternoons are the calmest, weekend nights are packed.
