KEY WEST, Fla., Oct 26, 2009 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- DEO | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Captain Morgan, legendary purveyor of good times, is returning to Key West for Fantasy Fest with the ultimate Halloween party, along with a familiar Safe Ride solution.

Celebrating its 30th year, Fantasy Fest is a 10-day extravaganza of non-stop costume competitions, masquerade balls, parties and street fairs, highlighted with the most outrageous parade in the country, the Captain Morgan Fantasy Fest Parade.

On Halloween night, Captain Morgan and his crew of Morganettes will lead a cavalcade of floats down Duval Street while upwards of 75,000 costumed revelers line the streets of the historic route. The Captain Morgan Fantasy Fest Parade features brilliant bands, outlandish dancers and more than 70 dazzling floats (some blaring music, some sporting elaborate creatures of fantasy), while parade participants revel with the onlooker's ala Mardi Gras.

Placing a premium on responsibility, the makers of Captain Morgan Original Spiced Rum and the City of Key West Department of Transportation are proud to celebrate the fifth year of the Captain Morgan Safe Ride program that provides all consumers with free public transportation from 5 p.m. - 2 a.m. on Saturday night.

"Everybody wins with the Captain Morgan Safe Ride program," said Myra Wittenberg, Director of the Key West Department of Transportation. "This is our fifth year providing a valuable public service. We encourage Fantasy Fest-goers to take advantage of the Captain Morgan Safe Ride program as a safe way to get to and from the Captain Morgan Fantasy Fest Parade on Saturday night."

Shuttle buses will be available throughout Key West, the Lower Keys and up to Marathon, Fla., with continuous service operating from Oct. 31 at 5 p.m. to Nov. 1 at 2 a.m. Buses will be clearly marked as CAPTAIN MORGAN FANTASY FEST PARADE SHUTTLES and will allow partygoers to enjoy the festivities without having to worry about parking, traffic or driving alternatives.
