Ahoy Mateys! Lyft is the official transportation partner of Gasparilla 2019 and is teaming up with Captain Morgan (@CaptainMorganUSA) to provide pirate themed fun and free rides. Beginning Jan. 21, look out for specialty Lyft and Captain Morgan wrapped Lyft cars “sailing” (or driving) the Tampa seas.
On Jan. 21, Monday of Gasparilla week, you could be a lucky Lyft rider who gets picked up in a Lyft and Captain Morgan branded car when you request your ride in the Tampa service area. The fun doesn’t end there! These branded cars will also surprise you with free pirate costumes so that you’ll be ready to celebrate Gasparilla to the fullest.
On Saturday, Jan. 26 during Gasparilla, you can rest and recharge at Lyft’s cooling and recharging stations along Bayshore Dr. and in the Downtown Area before getting back to the ships.
Pirates and parade-goers 21+ can also celebrate responsibly, thanks to Captain Morgan for providing discounted rides going to or from Gasparilla. Make sure to Ride Smart and keep an eye out on your local news outlets for code details and more information.
However you choose to enjoy the parade, Gasparilla is undoubtedly a day of celebration. Look for Lyft’s rest and recharge stations along Bayshore Dr. and in downtown Tampa to find a place to relax, play fun activities, win “Lyftie treasures”, and more. Plan to ride to Gasparilla and back with Lyft—we welcome all pirates aboard!
