Featuring: Tampa Bay Symphonic Winds and Jazz Band
Tampa Bay Pride Band welcomes you to our 8th season here in historic Ybor City. TBPB will be featuring our Winter Concert, “Snow Day” December 3rd, 2022 at 4pm in the Mainstage Theatre of Hillsborough Community College in Ybor City.
Snow days have been random childhood holidays that have created wonderful memories of snow angels and intense snowball fights. The joy of waking up to a blank canvas full of possible activities created a thrill only matched by the announcement that school would be cancelled for the day. Here in Florida, we don’t have snow days, but we are very familiar with our own hurricane days. Our activities are limited to indoor activities and our canvas is usually lit via candles or flashlights.
On a January of 1977 almost an inch of snow fell down on the sunshine state in the city of Tampa. This winter, the Tampa Bay Symphonic Winds is channeling the energy of that fateful “snow day” and bringing a chilling performance of songs. Of course, join the fun and hear some of your holiday favorites.
Come on down to historic Ybor City and celebrate diversity through music. Tickets are on sale for $12. Children 12 and under are free through December 2nd online. Tickets are $17 December 3rd online or in person. We want to thank our Title Sponsor Webtivity Marketing and Design. REFER A FRIEND! You're both eligible for up to $350 credit. Just visit their website http://www.webtivitydesigns.com/referral-program for more details.
We want to thank you all our sponsors and donors for their continued support in our program. Lastly, we want to say a special thank you to Ybor City Development Corporation, Arts Council of Tampa Bay, and support from the Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners.

When Walt Disney realized cheap tourist traps were enveloping Disneyland, he began a nationwide search for enough land to hold every dream he could imagine. What happened next would require a heightened degree of CIA-level secrecy for Disney’s undercover team, who launched a misinformation campaign that included dummy corporations and secret transaction. However, when a keen-eyed reporter cracked the code, Disney was forced to show his hand. Audiences will be amazed to learn of not only subterfuge, but also the monumental innovations and engineering feats required creating a whole new world.
