Life on Florida’s West Coast

Florida Strawberry Festival Concerts Announced

The Florida Strawberry Festival is a huge event here in the Tampa Bay area. Some school districts even reworked their calendars to do away with extra days off around Easter in favor of giving a day off for the Festival. Yes, it’s that big around here.

Yesterday, the entertainment was announced for the 2008 Florida Strawberry Festival. It’s a varied mix, though traditional heavy in the country music genre. Maybe those of you who could not get Hannah Montana tickets can just settle for seeing her dad, Billy Ray Cyrus,

The festival is also reverting to the practice of offering free seating in the stadium’s concrete bleachers for all shows. Last year, fans had to pay for those seats during the evening shows. Reserved seating ticket prices range from $10 to $40, depending on the act.
