Music on the Bay

14th Annual Music on the Bay

In 2026 we celebrate our 14th year. As always, we couldn’t do it without you! Thank you for your continued enthusiasm, participation and support of Music on the Bay.

Hosted by Tampa Bay and Nature Coast Parrot Head Clubs, the event has, since its inception, raised $645,000 for Shriners Chidren’s ™ – Florida. The funds this year will go to POPS (Pediatric Orthotic and Prosthetic Services).

In 2025 we welcomed attendees from 37 states, UK and Canada to the party and enjoy three and half days of nonstop music by some of the best, award-winning entertainers in the Trop-Rock world. The entire event took place on the shore of beautiful Tampa Bay at Whiskey Joe’s Barefoot Beach Bar. We had over 800 weekend registrations and on an average with walk-ins approximately 1100 attendees for the weekend.

This year we return to Whiskey Joe’s Barefoot Beach Bar beautiful Tampa Bay. The Whiskey Joe’s Management team has provided their assistance and support to make 2026 MOTB exciting and memorable!

Teaammmmmmmmm drink to the MOTB Steering Committee who gave selflessly throughout the entire year to plan and execute the event, and to our Partners to make 2026 a success!

Sit back, relax and enjoy 4½ days of the best, award winning entertainers in the Trop-Rock world, PHun and PHrolick!
