Grandma’s stuffing and invasive questions from family members are always exciting, but if you need more thrills, WTR Tampa has you covered with live music on the seashore. Dance-pop artist Sofi Tukker—which just headlined night one of this year’s Gasparilla Music Festival—performs on Wednesday, Nov. 24 alongside EDM artist John Summit. Rapper Ja Rule, who recently sold a Fyre Fest NFT for $122,000, headlines on Saturday, Nov. 27 alongside Miami-based DJ Irie. 

Tickets for the concerts at WTR—located at 7700 W Courtney Campbell Cswy—start at $20 for general admission to $35 for VIP, which gets you closer to the performers and access to the exclusive tiki area. Tables run from $100-$375, and can be reserved in advance.
