The Krewe of the Black Pearl proudly sails under the banner of Gasparilla tradition, embodying the spirit of adventure, fellowship, and community service. Founded on the principles of camaraderie and celebration, our krewe brings together individuals from all walks of life who share a passion for Tampa Bay’s most iconic festival and the joy of giving back.

As a recognized Gasparilla krewe, we participate in parades throughout the season, spreading cheer, laughter, and pirate pride to thousands of spectators. Our members march together not only to celebrate, but to create lasting memories and strengthen the bonds of friendship that define our krewe.

Beyond the festivities, the Krewe of the Black Pearl is deeply committed to charitable outreach and community involvement. We proudly support local causes and organizations through fundraising events, volunteer efforts, and meaningful contributions that reflect our dedication to making a positive impact.

At our core, we are more than just a parade krewe — we are a family. Whether marching side by side, working hand in hand at charity events, or gathering in fellowship, the Krewe of the Black Pearl represents unity, generosity, and the enduring spirit of Gasparilla. Together, we honor tradition while forging new adventures, always with the heart of pirates and the soul of community.
