Is it even the weekend before Thanksgiving if there’s not a weekend-long concert with a hella mega lineup of bands playing one more time before going home for the holiday?

After the initial music-only part of Hellshine Festival goes down at Crowbar in Ybor City on Friday and Saturday, the Hellshine party moves down to Ybor Heights' Deviant Libation on Sunday afternoon, for a free market selling, according to an Instagram post, “killer art, records, oddities, jewelry, scents, libations, and more.”

The Hellshine Festival market lineup includes local vendors like Sunshine Records, Scents from the Crypt, Caelan Jeffery Art, Art by Gabrielle Leigh, Atomic Tattoos and Chaotic Creations, and you can always enjoy a Crate Digger sour ale from Deviant Libation’s bar.
Tampatown’s Pipe Dreamer, Afterworld, and Horsewhip (supporting a brand new album) are part of the Sunday lineup along with  a reunion set from St. Pete’s Landbridge, and some of our neighbors to the not-too-far-North (specifically Asheville’s Autarch, New York City’s Vermindog, and Washington D.C.’s Genocide Pact).

Single-day tickets to Hellshine Festival happening Friday-Sunday, Nov. 17-19 at Crowbar in Ybor City and Deviant Libation in Ybor Heights are still available and start at $18.

More information is at @hellshine_fest on Instagram.

This daytime market happens on the last day of Hellshine Festival (which takes over Crowbar for its first two days) and is full of local art, oddities, crafts and “deviant wares.” , with Bay area bands and Washington D.C.’s Genocide Pac on the brewery’s outdoor stage.
