Key West is preparing to welcome an exciting celebration as it gears up for its annual Womenfest, set to run from September 3rd to 7th, 2025. This year, the theme is “Decades of Divas,” a nod to the profound impact influential women in music and history have had over the years. According to OutTake Online, the event promises to be a vibrant showcase filled with poolside parties, sunset cruises, and art exhibits that elevate the spirit of sisterhood.
Rob Dougherty, Executive Director of the Key West Business Guild, emphasizes the festival’s goal of celebrating „visibility, community, and joy for women.“ With activities tailored to foster a sense of empowerment and connection, Womenfest does a good deal to encourage attendees to embrace their femininity and unite in celebration.

And let’s not forget, all activities are open to participants aged 21 and over, making it an inclusive atmosphere for couples, singles, and anyone in between.
Community and Culture
Womenfest isn’t just about fun and frolic; it’s also a heartfelt tribute to women who’ve shaped our culture. As detailed by Fla-Keys Media, this event has been a cherished tradition in the Florida Keys for over 20 years, drawing thousands of LGBTQ+ women and their allies to the sunny shores. It embraces the “One Human Family” motto, underlining an inclusivity that enhances the community’s fabric.
Activities extend beyond the celebratory parties. Attendees can also partake in eco-friendly initiatives like plogging cleanups, bike tours, and even clothing-optional snorkeling adventures.
