Each year, one week following the Gasparilla Pirate Fest, Tampa's popular "Gasparilla" season of events continues with the Knights of Sant' Yago Knight Parade. Generally held the first or second Saturday of February, the parade is held at night and features wonderful illuminated floats, music and elaborately costumed pirates. Spectators on both sides of the street strain to catch Mardi Gras style beads as the parade participants party their way through the heart of Tampa's historic entertainment district, Ybor City.
