  <title>Big Pre-Fest in Little Ybor on 29 Oct 2013</title>
  <description><![CDATA[Location: Czar Bar

So, we have decided to expand our annual PRE-FEST down to the wonderful historic district of YBOR city (TAMPA, FL). I LOVE YBOR! It is a beautiful area of Florida full of culture, art, music, and the food!!! I can’t say enough about the good times we have shared down there. I was approached to try to expand FEST down there by our good friends at PBR. Our two reps live in the area and honestly wanted to try to share their backyard with all of you. After meeting with all the venue owners in Ybor and talking with long time friends from the area it just seemed like a no brainer. You also factor! TAMPA has a much larger international airport TIA (TPA). Flights would be cheaper for you all. We have also partnered with one of the nicest hotels I have had the pleasure to stay in - TAMPA HILTON DOWNTOWN!!!

You can find more info about this swanky joint on the HOTELS PAGE.

As far as the venues go, they are even within a closer walking distance than the ones in Gainesville. So you will have no problem jumping from show to show and finding crazy places in between to hang out at.  

We also felt like by expanding FEST into Ybor would open the opportunity for us to officially help bands play another show in Florida that would be as fun as the caliber of the shows they get to experience in Gainesville at FEST over the years. By also hosting this on a Tuesday/ Wednesday, it will also be an opportunity for many of our friends who work on weekends be able to finally ENJOY FEST instead of getting jealous for having to slave away while everyone else gets to play.

HOW WILL IT WORK?

BIG PRE-FEST IN LITTLE YBOR will work the same as FEST in the fact that you will purchase a TWO DAY pass (link to tickets page) that will allow you into all the venues. The venues we are using have been nothing but amazing so far to work with and are truly excited to host all of us.

WHAT VENUES WILL IT BE AT?

We will be having shows at the following venues, so far.....

CZAR BAR(three rooms/ two stages)

Orpheum(new location and one hell of a venue)

Crowbar

Honey Pot & G-BAR (LGBT friendly venues who used to host all the big shows back in the day and letting us bring in sound and take over their stages.)

We will be running all the venues at the same time in true FEST style from 5pm- 2am each night. Wednesday in the daytime, we will see what goes down. Maybe you can choose your own adventure, check out the Florida Aquariumor the Skate Park of Tampa, take your chances at the Seminole Hard Rock Casino, or ride some rides at Bush Gardens. There are also wonderful Gulf Coast beaches minutes away! Really up to you. Lots of options to choose from, and I am sure there will be other awesome friends in the Tampa area who will be planning a few day shows as well. As we find out we will inform you through the site. We still have several months to plan this exciting new addition to FEST!!!]]></description>
