An area code celebration is on the horizon for the Cigar City. We’re planning our 813 celebration on Tuesday, Aug. 13, and rounding up the deals marking the occasion.

Water Street Tampa and Sparkman Wharf are both offering 813-related deals. Here are some of the $8.13 specials catching our eye:

Sparkman Wharf will also donate $5 per photo (up to $1000) to the Tampa Bay History Center for photos taken of the TAMPA sign between Friday, Aug. 9 and Sunday, Aug. 18. Check out the full list of entry requirements.
