Race week in Key West isn't only about what happens on the water. Once the engines fall silent and the day's racing wraps up, the Key West Cooking Show keeps the night going, bringing together good food, island flavours and plenty of fun under one roof.

There's an interactive Dinner Show that pairs entertaining Key West stories with a full meal, and a Cocktail Class where visitors can learn to mix tropical favourites and pick up a few new ones along the way. For anyone wanting a taste of the island's best-known treat, the Key Lime Pie Experience dives into the history behind the dessert while letting guests make and enjoy it themselves.

No trip to Key West is complete without that pie, and the organisers lean into it as the island's signature flavour.

Before or after any of these experiences, Bar One is the spot to pull up a seat. Known for its handcrafted cocktails, relaxed island atmosphere and strong Key West character, it's a natural gathering point for race teams, friends and fans wanting to toast another day on the water.

Whether it's celebrating a win, swapping race-day stories over drinks, or just finding something memorable to do while in town for the Offshore World Championship Powerboat Races, the Key West Cooking Show offers something different from the racing itself.
