It's Friday, and the weather this weekend is supposed to be sunny and beautiful! Ok, yes, it'll get pretty warm out there, but the point is, the weekend is here, and there's LOTS of stuff to do in Tampa Bay!
The Florida Strawberry Festival is underway! Rides, tons of food, exhibits, vendors, and strawberry EVERYTHING! Plus, this weekend's live entertainment includes Lauren Daigle, Sammy Hagar, the Beach Boys, Boyz II Men, and more! Check out the full lineup HERE.
Eric Church is at Amalie Arena Saturday night! There are still some decent tickets left.
Beyond Van Gogh opens in Sarasota tonight at the UTC. It's an immersive art experience, and runs through April 24th.
The Lightning host the Redwings tonight
The Florida Brewer's Guild Craft Beer Fest is this Saturday, with over 300 local beers available to sample!
The St Pete Beach Bash Seafood & Music Festival is this weekend at the St Pete Pier (even though it's called a "beach bash, it's not on the beach...don't blame us, we didn't name it!).
The Skyway 10k is Sunday morning on the Sunshine Skyway Bridge. The race is sold out, but you should be aware that the northbound lanes of the bridge will be completely closed on Sunday from 3:30am to 11am. You will NOT be able to travel north on I-275 from Manatee to Pinellas during that time, so allow extra time if you're going that way; you'll need to take I-75 north and go around the Bay (take the Crosstown to I-275 SB, for example) if you're headed from Bradenton/Palmetto/Ellenton to St Pete.
