Juneteenth celebrations are happening across the Bay area over the next week, and perhaps the largest Juneteenth celebration on either side of the bridge features a “block party atmosphere” features food trucks, local vendors, small businesses, live performances, a job fair, health clinic and tons of family-friendly fun.

Tickets to the Tampa Bay Juneteenth Festival on Saturday, June 17 at Raymond James Stadium are $20-$30.

Just a few musicians that will take part in the festival include multi-genre singer Shauny Rox, prolific violinist Omari Dillard (pictured), jazz musician Nathan Mitchell and “Hate to Say Goodbye” rapper Pusha Preme, alongside a variety of other performers.

While adults have to pay a $30 admission fee to get into this weekend’s festival, parents can bring one child for free and pay $20 to bring a second kiddo.
