We should celebrate beautiful Ybor City every single day. The Ybor City Museum is an institution dedicated to preserving the history of the city, and celebrating it vibrant culture. VIVA Ybor is an event in support of the Ybor City Museum Society, and takes place on October 14 from 7pm-10:30pm at 1818 E 9th Avenue.
VIVA! will transport guests back to Ybor City in the 1920’s when the cigar industry and social scene were booming, and
prohibition wasn’t slowing anyone down, according to the event organizers. The celebration is costume optional, but I mean we’ll take any excuse to get dressed up for a themed party.
