The Tampa Riverwalk is set to come alive for its biggest celebration yet as Friends of the Tampa Riverwalk hosts the 10th Annual Tampa Riverfest on Friday and Saturday, May 1–2, 2026. This free, family-friendly festival spans from Curtis Hixon Park to Water Works Park and features live music, Tatse of the Riverwalk, Tacofest, a hot air balloon glow, the beloved Lantern Parade, the crowd-favorite Wiener Dog Derby, and a brand-new Kid Zone — with pop favorites Sixpence None the Richer headlining Saturday night.
Presented by Publix Super Markets, Riverfest transforms the Tampa Riverwalk into a lively hub of entertainment, showcasing the best of Tampa’s food, music, and culture.
