Game-day Tampa

Arena, stadium, or ballpark. Start in Ybor.

The event gets one night. Ybor gives you the rest of the weekend—coffee, dinner, live music, and a real place to gather before and after.

Tampa Bay Lightning

Benchmark International Arena

Ride the fare-free TECO Line directly from Ybor to Amalie Arena Station (Stop #8), beside the arena. It is an especially easy setup for visiting NHL fans traveling together—and keeps downtown parking out of the plan.

Visit the official arena page

Buccaneers + USF football

Raymond James Stadium

Raymond James Stadium is a straightforward rideshare or drive from either home. Come back to Ybor for dinner, drinks, and 7th Avenue instead of ending the weekend beside a parking lot.

Yankees Spring Training

George M. Steinbrenner Field

The Yankees' spring home—and the Tampa Tarpons' summer home—is a rideshare from Ybor. Pair the game with a full Tampa weekend rather than treating the ballpark as the whole trip.

Golf by day. Ybor after dark.

Golf weekend

Guys’ weekend

The group home that keeps the group together.

Walk to 7th Avenue, start or finish next door at BarrieHaus, and come back to your own rooftop and outdoor TV instead of splitting into separate hotel rooms.

Lightning trip

If you’re in town for a Tampa Bay Lightning game, make sure you take advantage of the street car. It takes you right to Amalie. A major convenience.
