Gasparilla Music Festival 2026

After being forced to take a break this year, Tampa’s long-running Gasparilla Music Festival (GMF) returns this spring at a new venue on the north end of downtown Tampa’s Water Street neighborhood.

GMF Executive Director David Cox told Creative Loafing Tampa Bay that the festival will happen over three days in April at and around the Meridian Fields site most recognizable by the old silos left standing after the demolition of Tampa’s Ardent flour mills.

Tickets go on sale Wednesday, Dec. 17 at 11 a.m. EST and start at $85 for a three-day general admission pass. A three-day VIP pass is $210.
