About Pier 60

Welcome to Pier 60, the iconic playground at Clearwater Beach where the city hosts nightly family-friendly events and major festivals. Located along the Gulf of Mexico, Pier 60 Park sits at park entrances near 370 Mandalay Ave with the festival hub at 7 Causeway Blvd, Clearwater Beach, FL 33767. The park operates from 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM, while Clearwater Beach itself is open 24/7. Expect lively sunsets, artisan markets, and large-scale beach festivals like the Sugar Sand Festival. Whether you’re catching a sunset, attending a festival, or simply enjoying the pier, this page helps you navigate seating, parking, transit, and nearby places to stay and eat. We’ve got you covered with practical details and trusted partner recommendations to make your visit easy and enjoyable.

Important notes: Pier 60 capacity varies with events, as there is no fixed seating for the public pier. For large events, plan ahead for parking and crowd levels. If you’re visiting during the Sugar Sand Festival, prepare for high attendance and extended hours in the festival area.
