2025 Skye Ranch Witches Ride
Turner Park at Skye Ranch
9185 Little Dipper Lane
Sarasota, FL 34241
Join us at Turner Park for the ultimate fall festival! Explore our vendor market filled with unique, local goods, enjoy family friendly activities, and soak up the festive atmosphere.
As the sun begins to set, watch our witches take flight! Cheer on our witches as they soar through Skye Ranch atop their brooms (bikes and golf carts!). We have candy zones outside of Turner Park on both sides of the street and outside of the Cassia Sales Center on Summer Night Rd, so bring your treat bags!
The celebration continues with Boos & Brews - a ticketed afterparty event. Sip on seasonal drinks, sample local cuisine and enjoy live music. This event is 21+ and tickets must be purchased in advance.
Resident Entrance and Parking
The resident entrance and parking is located on Starry Night Ave. Please enter from the Starry Night Ave gate (across from The Hub) and park in the playground/ tennis court parking area or park at the Hub and walk across the street.
Public Entrance and Parking
The public entrance and parking is located on Lorraine Road and Little Dipper Lane. You may park on Little Dipper along the baseball fields. Once this area is filled, additional parking is on Lorraine Road. Please do not go past the traffic cones on Little Dipper Road for the safety of the event.
Golf Cart Parade Parking
Participating Witches should park their golf carts and bikes on Starry Night Ave on the Hub side of the road, FACING the roundabout. Please do not park in this area unless you are participating in the parade route as a witch.
2025 Parade Route
We’ve made a few magical changes to this year’s Skye Ranch Witches Ride parade route — it’s now shorter, more parade-like, and perfect for witches of all kinds!
This year, we’ve clustered our candy zones to create a true community parade experience:
Candy Zone 1: Right outside Turner Park and The Hub on Starry Night Ave — parade-goers can line up on both sides of the street to catch candy and goodies!
After making a loop through the roundabout, we’ll head down Starry Night, take a right on Skye Ranch Blvd, then a right onto Summer Night Rd.
Candy Zone 2: Located right outside the Cassia Sales Center — another sweet spot to catch the action (with parking lot access!)
From there, the parade will continue back to end at The Hub parking lot.
Please note: Candy will only be thrown within the two candy zones. So make sure to set up in one of those areas for the best experience!
Safety in Candy Zones
Please stay behind the caution taped area in the Candy Zone. We ask that you please do not allow your children to go into the road to collect candy UNTIL THE PARADE HAS FULLY PASSED. It is your responsibility to watch out for the safety of your children.
