Weekend events: Tampa Fringe Fest, Polk Pride and a Father's Day market
The weekend is nigh. We've got you covered on Tampa Bay's hottest events.
🤣 Tampa International Fringe Festival: Laugh until your tummy hurts at one (or a few!) of the many shows scheduled during the ninth-annual comedy festival in Ybor City.
A good one for Father's Day: "Stop Freaking Out: The Denis Phillips Method To Dealing With Weather And Life." Tampa Bay's favorite meteorologist is known for his dad shoes and generally has dad energy (probably because he is an actual dad).
Anyway, buy tickets for that show here, and peruse the rest of the schedule here. The fest runs through June 22.
👔 Dads Day Market: Two words: cornhole tournament. Compete for tickets to The James Museum, plus dance to live music and indulge in smashburgers from Bellies Street Food.
11am-3pm Saturday, WonderWorks in Gulfport.
📚 The Underground Book Fair at the Jack Kerouac House: Shop books, records and art and mingle with local authors at this unique book fair in the St. Petersburg home Kerouac once lived in.
1-5pm Saturday. Admission is a suggested $5 donation, which goes to the nonprofit that owns and maintains the home.
🏳️🌈 Polk Pride in the Park: Commemorate the 10th anniversary of Polk Pride with a family-friendly celebration with tons of vendors, entertainment and a Pride flag march. 10am-3pm Saturday at Lakeland's Munn Park.
