TAMPA, Fla. — Fun and festivity are coming back to Curtis Hixon Park in downtown Tampa as Winter Village returns.
From now through Jan. 5, the park is transformed into a winter wonderland with ice skating, shopping and plenty of decorations.
New this year, the Tampa Bay Ice Show will feature skilled skaters in a 10-minute performance, which is only on select nights.
There are also themed nights:
- Thunderstruck Thursdays – Embrace your Tampa Bay Lightning pride every Thursday with themed food and beverage and a big dose of Bolts excitement.
- Silent Disco Fridays – Dance under the stars with silent disco headphones every Friday from 6 to 9 p.m. Headphones are first-come, first-served.
- Street Curling is also back! Grab a friend and join in the holiday-fueled fun on the curling lanes, available Wednesday through Sunday.
And a fun way to get there:
Hop aboard the Winter Village Express and take a magical holiday trip on the TECO Line Streetcar. On select Sundays, this one-hour, round-trip ride from downtown's Whiting Station to historic Ybor City features holiday sing-a-longs, trivia, milk and cookies, and festive surprises for the whole family. Tickets go on sale on Nov. 1, with rides available on Nov. 24, Dec. 1, 8, 15, and 22.
