3 TBAY Father’s Day event picks

Make this Father’s Day an experience with a trip to The Florida Aquarium, a hands-on workshop, or a little competition.

A tank of coral at the Florida Aquarium's Coral Conservation and Research Center. There is blue fluorescent lighting above the tank and the coral sits in water.

The Florida Aquarium is in its sixth year of coral spawning.

Still on the hunt for plans for celebrating dear old dad? We got you.

We rounded up some fantastic finds for the fatherly figure in your life who loves an activity:

  • The Florida Aquarium is offering two-for-one admission all weekend long, so you can check out the stingrays, coral reefs, jellyfish, and all kinds of other marine life.
  • For the competitive duos, may we suggest a friendly round of cornhole? It’s a bit of a hike outside Tampa, but The Starkey Market is hosting its fifth annual Father’s Day Cornhole Tournament — beers and eats will be available for purchase too.
  • Make memories and mementos at the Dad & Me Epoxy Coaster Workshop. Kids ages six and up can craft personalized coasters + a holder with their papa — all supplies and two admissions are included with each ticket.

Find Father’s Day brunches + even more event options on our calendar.
