It’s hard to be bored in Tampa. This May, Tampa’s huge Riverfest will bring thousands to downtown Tampa to celebrate the Riverwalk, local businesses, art, and our local community. The latest addition to the multi-day festivities is a retro water ski show.
This oh-so-Florida event will take place on May 4 from 5pm-6pm, and is free to watch. The best views will be from the Riverwalk by Water Works Park in Tampa Heights (near Armature Works at 1910 N Ola Ave).

The hour-long extravaganza will feature dazzling displays of athleticism paired perfectly with old Florida charm. This festivity has also become a mainstay for Tampa’s big 4th of July Boat Parade.
Riverfest itself takes place on May 3 and 4. It will include two food festivals, a lantern parade, live music, a curated local vendor market, and more community events. See our full Riverfest guide for more information.
