The Skye Ranch Witches Ride is back for its fifth year on Saturday, Oct. 24, and organizers are celebrating with a “Rewind the Magic” theme. The 2026 beneficiary is the Child Protection Center, the same Sarasota nonprofit the event supported in its very first year.
Over four years, the ride has donated nearly $100,000 to local groups including SPARCC, All Star Children’s Foundation, All Faith’s Food Bank and the Child Protection Center. The event is produced by the Suncoast Enchanted Alliance, a 501(c)(3) founded in 2022, and it runs entirely on volunteers, which means 100% of proceeds go straight to the beneficiary.
The day offers two ways to take part. The Family Fall Festival kicks off at 2 p.m. and the Witches Ride Parade rolls at 5:30 p.m., both free and open to the community. For a night out, the Boos and Brews after-party runs from 6:30 to 10 p.m., with tickets available at skyeranchwitchesride.com.
Will you be at the parade, the after-party, or both? Let us know in the comments.
