Celebrate Oktoberfest in Tampa

If you’re looking for something to do this weekend, head to Downtown Tampa for Oktoberfest. Oktoberfest starts today and runs through Sunday at Curtis Hixon Park. Admission is $10 for 1 day or $25 for the weekend.

You can enjoy some German food, music, and of course, beer, while watching or joining in on the games. This is a family and dog friendly event, and the weather looks like it’s going to be perfect.

And, if you’re active duty or retired military, you get in for free!

I’ll see you there!

Museum Day, Free Admission in Tampa and Around the Country

Saturday, September 24, 2011 is Museum Day. In honor of this day, many museums around Tampa Bay, and across the country will be offering free admission. If you don’t have any plans for Saturday, this could be a great way to spend the day. You won’t be able to hop from museum to museum because it is limited to a pair of tickets for one museum per household, but, hey, it’s free, so stop your complaining!

Some of the museums participating include:

Tampa Bay History Center
Dali Museum
Tampa Museum of Art
The Pier Aquarium, and many, many, more…

To get your pair of free tickets, head over to SmithsonianMag.com, fill out your information and select the Museum of your choice. The tickets will be e-mailed to you and you can be on your way to expanding your horizons and exploring new Tampa places. Enjoy the day!
