Pre-book nowso all you have to worry about is getting your Pier 60 Sugar Sand festival tickets!

This year’s Pier 60 Sugar Sand Festival marks the 10th anniversary of this amazing experience, and the theme? “DinoShores: A Prehistoric Adventure in Sand.”
Yep, we’re talking full-size dinosaurs, fossils, and ancient creatures carved out of Clearwater’s signature soft white sand that’ll make this year’s Pier 60 Sand festival photos something straight out of Jurassic Park!
You’ll find sculptures so detailed and lifelike, it’s hard to believe they’re made entirely of sand. Plus, for the first time ever, this year’s festival includes an augmented reality experience, so you can watch the dinos roar and move right before your eyes.
But it’s not just about the art. You’ll also find nightly concerts, fireworks, live sculpting demos, a Ferris wheel, beach yoga, and a carnival-style atmosphere for all ages.
How long is the Sugar Sand festival, you ask? 17 days of art, music, and beachside fun, perfect to enjoy on one of our rental golf carts!

Trying to park a full-size car anywhere near Pier 60 during the festival? Yeah… good luck with that. Between the crowds, street closures, and limited beach lots, a golf cart isn’t just convenient—it’s kind of genius.
Here’s why golf carts are the way to go:
Golf carts fit in smaller spaces and have access to designated parking areas near the festival. You won’t need to fight for a garage spot or trek half a mile with your beach gear.
With most Clearwater Beach roads set to 35 mph or lower, your golf cart can zip around traffic and get you where you’re going faster than a car stuck behind a trolley.
Want to bounce between the sand sculpture tent, grab a bite at Frenchy’s, then catch the sunset by the marina? A golf cart makes it easy to move between all the action, whenever you feel like it.
Our golf carts seat 4 to 6 people comfortably, and child seats are available upon request, making them perfect for festival-going families.
Cruising Clearwater Beach in a golf cart isn’t just smart—it’s part of the experience. Let the breeze roll in, the music play, and make every ride feel like vacation.

The Pier 60 Sugar Sand Festival only comes once a year—and this 10th anniversary celebration is one you won’t want to miss.
Don’t let parking stress or long walks kill the vibe. With a golf cart, you can soak in every sculpture, every show, and every beachside moment without the hassle.
At Beach Ride Rental, we offer local delivery, flexible booking, and clean, street-legal carts ready to roll. Just remember: we’ve got a two-day minimum, and carts go fast during festival season.
Book early, cruise easy, and make your festival experience unforgettable.
A great meeting spot is the Clearwater Beach Marina parking area—plenty of space and just a short walk from Pier 60. It’s also near restaurants and restrooms, so you can hang out while waiting.
Absolutely! Most roads around the festival are 35 mph or under, and Clearwater is very golf-cart-friendly. You'll be able to zip around the beach area with ease.
As early as possible! Festival season gets busy fast, and with our 2-day minimum rental, it’s best to lock in your cart weeks in advance—especially for weekends, holidays and festivals like the Pier 60 Sand Festival.
Yes, most of our carts include storage space for small gear like chairs, coolers, and beach bags. If you’re bringing a lot of stuff, let us know—we’ll recommend the right size cart.
Of course! Your cart isn’t limited to just the festival—you can cruise to restaurants, bars, shopping areas, and back to your hotel. It’s your go-anywhere beach ride.

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers).
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs. There may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
