New World Tampa’s 30th anniversary weekend brings in some of the venue’s most-beloved artists

If you told attendees of the 2017 New World Brewery blowout in Ybor City (the original room’s last show at 1313 E 8th Ave.) about a 30th anniversary party for the venue, you’d probably be told through tears to piss off.

But eight years down the line, the property just west of Busch Gardens Tampa Bay is hosting that exact, weekend-long shindig featuring the current wave of the music scene’s best and brightest names, with a little help from Have Gun, Will Travel’s Burke Brothers, and Will Quinlan, all of whom were there on that final night in Ybor all those years ago.

New World Brewery’s 30th anniversary concerts happen Friday-Saturday, April 25-26 in Tampa, and tickets start at $30.
