Things to do in Tampa Bay in May

May is the handover month: the big winter festivals are done and the beach season takes over. Pinellas Pepper Fest, WMNF Tropical Heatwave and Tampa Bay Chalk Festival all land this month, alongside 4 more we would actually go to. Everything here is a named annual event in Tampa Bay, dated as far ahead as the organisers have confirmed.

8 more run every week in Tampa Bay year round, including Ybor City Saturday Market and Sunsets at Pier 60. See the full calendar.
