An extravaganza of eclectic and exotic entertainment!
Since 1982, Tropical Heatwave has been a rite of spring for fans of eclectic music. Once just a Cuban Club event, Tropical Heatwave now spreads all over Ybor City, presenting an incredible lineup of diverse entertainment with more than 60 bands on multiple stages. . The event has not only become one that brings all of Ybor City alive with great music and parties, it has also become a near perfect example of the public radio-local community/business partnership that is now emulated in other markets throughout the country. This year’s two-day event will include several venues located on Ybor City’s main drag, 7th Avenue, with stages in several historic locations and enclosed parking lots – including the historic Centennial Park.
