ParrotPhest Brings Island Vibes and Charity Raffles to Fort Myers Beach This Weekend

Margaritaville Resort in Fort Myers Beach hosts ParrotPhest 2025, a three-day event running Oct. 3-5. Beach games, music sets, and prize drawings fill the weekend schedule.

On the Sunset Terrace, Radio Margaritaville's JD Spradlin takes control of the music from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Saturday. The Tropiholics hit the stage at 7 p.m.

Attendees can purchase $5 raffle tickets. Prizes range from local club gift sets to luxury stays at beach resorts. The grand prize winner can pick between a five-day or seven-day ocean cruise for two on Margaritaville at Sea.

Each night brings fresh chances to win. The 50/50 cash drawings run Friday and Saturday, with all proceeds benefiting the Alzheimer's Association.

Bird Gardens of Naples brings their feathered stars for photos. Share your shots on social media with the resort's tag — it might earn you free drinks at the bar.

Show off your best island wear on Friday night. The best-dressed guest walks away with a three-night stay right on the beach.
