Celebrating Tampa’s Water Tower: The Annual River Tower Festival

If you’ve driven around Tampa, you’ve definitely spotted the Sulphur Springs Water Tower. With its castle-like structure towering over a scenic park, it’s as eye-catching as a Disney attraction, visible right from the highway. Now, a local group is on a mission to raise funds to preserve and restore this iconic tower. That’s the inspiration behind the always lively “River Tower Festival.” This exciting event kicks off at noon on November 2, from 1 pm to 10 pm at 401 E Bird St.

Tickets and Event Details

Tickets for the event range from $20 to $60, and can be reserved online. Children 10 and under enjoy free entry. The festivities will include live music, food trucks, and an array of local vendors selling handmade goods. The event isn’t pet-friendly, so make sure to leave your four-legged friends at home. This festival is brought to life each year by The River Tower Foundation.
