🦐 Shrimp Festival Shrimp Boil 🌞
Join us for one of Fort Myers Beach’s most anticipated traditions of the weekend — the Shrimp Festival Shrimp Boil, proudly hosted by the Fort Myers Beach Lions Club. This family-friendly coastal celebration features freshly prepared shrimp, classic southern sides, and lively island entertainment that brings locals and visitors together year after year.

🎟️ Tickets
Your Shrimp Boil ticket includes a generous serving of locally-prepared shrimp and festival-favorite fixings, with proceeds supporting the Lions Club’s community programs, vision services, and scholarships. Seating is first-come, first-served, and guests are encouraged to arrive early for the best dining times and shortest lines.

🍤 Menu & Experience
Enjoy hot shrimp right off the boil, paired with traditional sides and all the flavor you expect from Southwest Florida’s signature seafood weekend. This year’s Shrimp Boil also features live music at Bayside Park to set the Beach tone and keep the energy upbeat while you dine, laugh, and enjoy the festival atmosphere with family and friends.

🍺 New This Year: Beer Tent
For the first time in pageant and festival history, guests can enjoy beverages from our official Beer Tent, adding an exciting new layer of fun to this beloved community event. Alcohol will only be served to guests 21+, with ID required.

💛 Community Impact
Every plate served helps fund the Fort Myers Beach Lions Club’s mission, supporting local families through sight and hearing programs, scholarships, and ongoing service efforts throughout the year. When you enjoy the Shrimp Boil, you are directly giving back to the very community you love.

🌴 Gratitude to Our Sponsors
