📅 Friday, September 4, 2026
⏰ 6:30 PM – 7:15 PM
📍 200 Block Duval Street · Key West

Presented by Hogfish Bar & Grill

As part of the historic recreation of the 1998 Meeting of the Minds concert on Duval Street—featuring Gary & the Landsharks—the stage will transform into a search for the island’s best Bubba.

If you’ve ever been told you look like the troubadour—any age, any era—this is your moment.

The Bubba Look-Alike Showdown invites contestants to step into the spotlight and channel the look, attitude, and presence of Key West’s favorite son. Whether it’s the early pirate days, the mustached storyteller, or the laid-back island legend, we’re looking for the one who brings it to life best.

Hosted by local Buffett tribute performer and Comedy Club lunch show host Caleb Hogan, contestants will take the stage one by one, introduce themselves, and then pick up a guitar provided on stage. From there, a random well-known Buffett song will kick in—and it’s on. Each contestant will lip sync, perform, and embody the part in front of a live Duval Street crowd.

A panel of esteemed local representatives will narrow the field to three finalists. From there, the audience takes over—the winner will be decided by live QR code voting, making this a true people’s choice showdown.

🏆 The winner receives:
🥥 The Golden Coconut Trophy
💵 $1,000 cash prize
🌴 Ultimate festival bragging rights

Presented by Hogfish Bar & Grill, a true Stock Island institution and longtime favorite of Jimmy Buffett himself. Owner Bobby Mongelli, a close friend of Jimmy’s, helped create the kind of place Buffett loved most—unpretentious, local, and real. It’s also where one of his most iconic late-life Key West photos was taken, sitting at a picnic table completely at home.
