Adding to an already stacked lineup of bands you definitely like but kinda forgot about, Busch Gardens Tampa Bay announced the addition of '90s R&B group En Vogue and disco legends Kool and The Gang to the 2021 Food and Wine Festival lineup.

The announcement also included the addition of Latin Explosion (a tribute to Selena, Gloria Estefan and Santana) and Fleetwood Max (a tribute to Fleetwood Mac). That's better than Vanilla Ice, right?

The limited capacity concerts are free with admission, and runs through April 25 on the field near Iron Gwazi. 

  • April 2 Sugar Ray
  • April 3 Sister Hazel
  • April 9 Latin Explosion (a tribute to Santana, Gloria Estefan and Selena)
  • April 10 LOCASH
  • April 11 Fleetwood Max (a tribute to Fleetwood Mac)
  • April 17 Tito Nieves
