On the first Thursday of each month, locals gather on the riverfront for Rock the Park, a free outdoor concert series spotlighting Tampa Bay’s top indie bands and rising stars. This event, which has received accolades from Visit Tampa Bay and Creative Loafing, is known for its relaxed vibe, family-friendly environment, and breathtaking sunset views over the Hillsborough River. Bring a blanket, grab a bite from food trucks, and enjoy live music under the stars.
