Tampa’s Gasparilla Music Festival will return April 10-12, 2026, following a one-year hiatus, organizers announced today. The festival will move to a new location, though the venue has not been disclosed.

The three-day event traditionally features rock, indie, folk and electronic acts across multiple stages. Past lineups have included both national touring artists and Florida-based musicians.

Festival organizers cited logistical reasons for both the hiatus and venue change. The 2025 cancellation marks the first break in the festival’s annual schedule since its inception.

Ticket sales are expected to begin in early 2026, with lineup announcements anticipated in January. Pricing information has not been released.

The Gasparilla Music Festival launched in 2012 and has grown to attract thousands of attendees each year. The event coincides with Tampa’s broader Gasparilla season of cultural celebrations.

Representatives stated that the new location will accommodate the festival’s growth while maintaining its community focus. Additional details about venue capacity, parking and transportation options will be announced in coming months.
