What to Expect at the 2025 Pier 60 Sugar Sand Festival
This yearβs Pier 60 Sugar Sand Festival marks the 10th anniversary of this amazing experience, and the theme? βDinoShores: A Prehistoric Adventure in Sand.β
Yep, weβre talking full-size dinosaurs, fossils, and ancient creatures carved out of Clearwaterβs signature soft white sand thatβll make this yearβs Pier 60 Sand festival photos something straight out of Jurassic Park!
Youβll find sculptures so detailed and lifelike, itβs hard to believe theyβre made entirely of sand. Plus, for the first time ever, this yearβs festival includes an augmented reality experience, so you can watch the dinos roar and move right before your eyes.
But itβs not just about the art. Youβll 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!
Why Use a Golf Cart at the Sugar Sand Festival
Trying to park a full-size car anywhere near Pier 60 during the festival? Yeahβ¦ good luck with that. Between the crowds, street closures, and limited beach lots, a golf cart isnβt just convenientβitβs kind of genius.
Hereβs why golf carts are the way to go:
Easy Parking
Golf carts fit in smaller spaces and have access to designated parking areas near the festival. You wonβt need to fight for a garage spot or trek half a mile with your beach gear.
Smooth Navigation
With most Clearwater Beach roads set to 35 mph or lower, your golf cart can zip around traffic and get you where youβre going faster than a car stuck behind a trolley.
Festival Flexibility
Want to bounce between the sand sculpture tent, grab a bite at Frenchyβs, then catch the sunset by the marina? A golf cart makes it easy to move between all the action, whenever you feel like it.
Perfect for Groups & Families
Our golf carts seat 4 to 6 people comfortably, and child seats are available upon request, making them perfect for festival-going families.
