    The best sunset view in the Tampa bay! It was very crowded, so with COVID restrictions we were somewhat uncomfortable by the proximity of the people even out in the open while watching the sunset. The sunset however was spectacular.

    I figured I should do an update of my two star review of this event (see below) as there have been some changes: On my recent visits to the Pier during the "Sunsets" event, the music I complained about in my prior review wasn't blasting at such a high volume. Sometimes, the loudspeakers were even off. And when they did play music, it wasn't the kind that "attracts the wrong element". Instead, it was the kind of music that attracts...people like me. It is as if those in control of the sound system read my critical Yelp review and did something about it. (Although I didn't hear anything from the Beach Boys.) There is still an issue with noise, however, as there are too many street performers and street musicians using microphones and loud amps during the Sunsets at Pier 60 event. They should all be forced to perform/play/sing "unplugged".

    Great place to fish and catch a sunset!

    Family friendly place to be! Festivals and activities for all ages. Fishing rod rental and bait available for those who want to try out the Gulf waters. Parking can be a little difficult to find.

    Been here a gazillion times, and it doesn't get old for me. There's so much to do here including waterslides, a playground for the kids, movies in the park, street performers, and craft vendors. There's also a place to get burgers, and ice cream, as well as shop for beach stuff, and go to the bathroom. It's here for the tourists, the beach lovers, and the locals, & it's a blast everytime. It is dog friendly here so that's good as well.

    Countdown until sunset!!

    Everything about Clearwater is amazing from the food, local brews, the friendly people and that sunset. This is my second vacation to Clearwater. The white powder sand and crystal clear water is awesome. Actually going to Pier 60 is a must. There is a sunset festival every day all year long. The locals come up set up booths and show off their talents. You can purchase some pretty cool stuff and watch someone eat fire. I recommend walking the pier at sunset. It's a $1.00 to walk the second half of the pier but totally worth it. There are some benches to sit and a covered area so you can take in the view. Another beautiful vacation added to the books. Thank you Florida!

    Watching the sunset was so peaceful tonight! We came around 6:30pm and it wasn't too crowded on the beach, but parking was still limited. The water was the perfect temperature and I really enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere. The birds do come after your food so watch out for that, other than that it's a good time in the evening. We stayed until around 8:30 pm when the sun was set. :) There's a nightly celebration every night daily. They have artists, crafters and some entertainment. I also saw a playground for the kids. You can buy things from the vendors.

    The pier is the best place to watch the sunset, so bring your asthma inhaler because it is a "breath-taking" view. Clean and well kept. Entry on the pier to watch the sunset is $1 per person. Various entertainment and independent vendors line the pier as well as the surrounding area 2 hours before and 2 hours after sunset. Support independent and local artists by buying souvenirs from them instead.

    We were here for the Saturday night pier events, which is 2 hours before and after sunset. If you are already on Clearwater beach, fine, but not worth a drive to come. There's supposed to be entertainment, but all I saw were 2 buskers a distance away, and music from a speaker at the entrance to the pier. There were vendors on the pier with a varied assortment of wares, and it was a beautiful view of the beach at night. A big plus was, there was no charge to go on the pier, as many do charge. There appeared to be an outdoor movie night there as well.

    Entertainers, vendors, and a sunset...that's what you have here at Pier 60. I came here particularly for the sunset and to see what else was happening. There were a handful of vendors on the pier, I didn't buy anything but I did stop in the store on the pier on my way out and bought myself a hat and t-shirt, as the souvenirs there were very reasonable in price! A few people saw dolphins from the pier, I didn't happen to see any :( There is also fishing that can be done from the pier as well. A bit of advice...park north of the pier, as parking is cheaper... its just a few block walk, nothing crazy, it will save you a few bucks. What made me giggle to myself were the people contemplating spending $1 to go to the end of the pier... lots of them! Geez people, it's a buck compared to the amount you're spending on all kinds of other things in the area!!!

    We decided to visit Pier 60 (and all of Clearwater Beach) on Saturday of Mother's Day weekend. While I suggested other less crowded parks/beaches, I was met with protests from a quite stubborn family member. It took 25 years to find parking. OK, it took like 45 minutes, but it felt like 25 years. 25 long, long years of going around the roundabout 250 times, being cut off by several drivers, thinking I found a parking spot when it reality it has a 30-minute limit or is only for certain customers. I was frustrated! After I finally found a spot, I had to take 10 minutes to just chill out because I couldn't imagine dealing with a crowd of people - and that's what you'll find at Pier 60. We didn't come to go swimming or to sunbathe but just to walk around. They have a nice playground nearby that was crowded but not too crowded (?). They also had an event going on, but we didn't dare to go near it with the amount of people inundating the space. We walked along the Pier and admired the view... of people swimming and sunbathing. It was nice, but it wasn't breathtaking. The Pier itself wasn't too crowded. It was very easy to walk around and there was space to breathe and take pictures without having some random guy photobomb your picture. They have a shop that has restrooms as well. While we didn't buy anything, we did make a quick visit to the bathroom. Despite the constant foot traffic, it was pretty clean and the line went by surprisingly quick. It was a nice visit. Do I regret it? No. Will I visit again? Maybe. Was the parking a *****? HELL YES. Be prepared.

    This is both a lively and relaxing beach area, with many scheduled events, nearby restaurants, etc. in addition to the beautiful beach!

    Not sure why it's listed as Pier 60 Concessions on here, there is no food. It sounds like a concession stand... it's not! Pier 60 is a nightly festival everyday of the year on Clearwater Beach. They have craft vendors set up along the pier selling unique things mostly nautical such as a snow globe shells. They have live bands, street performers aka buskers. They have jugglers, fire jugglers, magicians, and so much more. It's pretty fun. There is no admission, you just pay for parking and tip the performers of course.

I went by myself because I knew that it was Dino themed, which I am such a geek about and didn't want to hold up any of my family and friends while I just stared and took the tons of photos I knew I was going to take. Aside from loving the theme, you just have to be in awe of the amazing artwork, skill, patience, creativity, etc it takes to make any of these designs. Like I said, I have been there over the course of several years and honestly, I don't know why I don't make it an annual event to visit. It will never be the same and is reasonably priced. You also don't have people rushing you along to allow for more people to enter. If you feel you do, that is something you allow to happen as I have never felt, seen or heard anything like that. I love hearing people, young or old come in and gasp at the sights and the joy it brings to people while amazing them. To me, this is something that wows everyone, and brings smiles more so to the adults as they understand what it all takes to complete. They always have a sand sculptor present and working so that people can see what goes into the process. They also have a section dedicated to junior or aspiring professional sculptors to showcase their work, which you can vote on by putting in a donation in their boxes to help with their costs (and maybe decide the winner). Even those are wonderful but generally don't match the rest of the theme. 1000% advise anyone in the area during this festival to visit, it is well worth it.

Yes, it was raining but that didn't detour my mood. I was ready for a good time but realistically was expecting more of a crowd due to the fact we would all be under one tent. I purchased the VIP tickets which after fees cost me $107 per person. What was offered in the vip tent was a joke. There were two additional drink stations and four booths with snacks/food. Not worth an additional $50 per person! On to the general admission tent, not enough vendors, not enough variety. I was expecting to taste some wonderful cuisine from the Clearwater area. I found it to be more like samples from your local grocer. I expect wine to be paired with cheese and snacks, so I get that aspect of it but there was literally only two restaurants there representing. There was no organization in regards to vendor lines, just all chaos. Would I return? Nope.

It almost make customers to walk to business not business to the customers. It take a good 3 to 5 miles walk if you decided to visit most of the venues. Customers do all the work. Timing- this festival held at the beginning of the summer. It is close to raining season. Why not hold it at march for outdoor activities. Today is just not the day because it is too humid after day of big rain. Sweat all over the place. Value- the venue did not spent money on facility to host this event. All food taste is at the outside of store. The food is provided by the restaurant, the venue only spent money on stamp and web advertising. I think it is negative effects to promote business. $25 value may not enough just to try 10 business. Defeat the purpose to promote business. Food- only a few did a good job.

How are you going to get the customers back to your restaurant. With that said. I give applause to Kelly's, Olde Bay Cafe, Lucky Lobster and Pisces Sushi. They are the few that do a good job.
