Wikipedia:  The Gasparilla Pirate Festival is a large parade and a host of related community events held in Tampa, Florida almost every year since 1904.  Each of these events typically draw about 100,000 revelers.

Pirates, Parades and “Piratechnics” … Ye Mystic Krewe of Gasparilla invites you to join us for the pleasures ‘n treasures of Tampa’s signature Gasparilla celebrations.

[Editor’s Note:  This is Dean Calin.  For about twenty years I’ve been trying to discover gig opportunities for this event, which draws over one-million people to it.  I have been entirely unsuccessful.  I would enjoy hearing from other maritime musicians who have investigated this event to learn of their experiences.]
