The event features illuminated floats and takes place annually one Saturday evening in February and runs into the early morning hours. The event was founded in 1972 by The Krewe of the Knights of Sant'Yago which has hosted the event each year since. It typically takes place a week or two after the main Gasparilla Parade of Pirates and is considered the more "adult-oriented" of the two parades.
