Tampa Events
Occurring Annually

Most Tampa events occur during the time period from October to March.  The reason for that can be summed up in two words; heat and rain.

You will not find many events going on in the summer time unless they are beach related.  The weather is just too hot during this time to make any event pleasant.  Besides even if they did decide to have events, not many people would be there.

The following is a list of the major events that occur each year in the Tampa Bay area.
