About St Pete Pride Pool Party at Casa del Merman 2026

Cool off at the St Pete Pride Pool Party at Casa del Merman 2026, the official poolside hang of Florida's biggest Pride weekend, set at a tropical gay guesthouse in St. Petersburg. It runs Sunday, June 21, 2026, from noon to 4 PM at Casa del Merman inside GayStPete House, 4505 5th Ave N, just off the Grand Central District corridor. Picture a resort-style afternoon by the water, lounge chairs, easy conversation, and that laid-back tropical vibe St. Pete does so well. Like a lot of poolside Pride gatherings, this one likely skews adults, so confirm the age policy and any entry details at stpetepride.org before you head over. This is a midday Florida pool party in late June, which means heat is the real headliner. Expect highs near 90 with thick humidity and the chance of a quick afternoon thunderstorm rolling through. Slather on sunscreen before you arrive and reapply, bring a refillable water bottle, and tuck a hat into your bag. A light rain layer never hurts if the sky turns. Pace yourself early so you can actually enjoy the whole four hours. Parking around the venue is tight, so rideshare is the smart move, and during Pride weekend the SunRunner BRT and PSTA buses run free across downtown, Tropicana Field, and St. Pete Beach if you want to combine it with other stops. Local tip, get there close to noon to claim a good lounge chair before the deck fills up. Many St Pete Pride events benefit the org, so showing up early is also showing up for the community.
