Twenty-five years after cutting its teeth in the Bay area, there aren’t many more venues that can hold The Hip Abduction.

St. Petersburg’s homegrown world-pop heavyweight—supporting a 2024 album, Stargazers, Wanderers & Rogues—has opted to take the show the park for this “Friendsgiving” show where North Carolina rock festival staple Big Something and ukulele-weilding songwriter Vana Liya warm up the bandshell.

Tickets to see The Hip Abduction play England Brothers Park in Pinellas Park on Saturday, Nov. 30 are still available and start at $29.50.
