The Tampa Pig Jig and HopeWill Foundation have officially rescheduled their highly anticipated annual event to Sunday, November 3, at Julian B. Lane Riverfront Park (1001 N Blvd). This decision came in the wake of Hurricane Milton, which devastated Tampa and its surrounding areas. Collaborating closely with the City of Tampa, event vendors, and this year’s artists, organizers felt the need to shift the date to give the city time to recover and ensure that all necessary resources are in place to support the event. On the new date, fans will be welcomed earlier, with gates opening at 11 a.m. to kick off the festivities.
Despite the date change, the star-studded lineup remains unchanged, much to the delight of ticket holders. The event will still feature three-time CMA Award winner Dierks Bentley, American rock band The Revivalists, and multi-platinum singer-songwriter Chase Rice. Organizers have also hinted at adding more artists to the roster soon. Anyone who has already purchased tickets for the original date can rest easy—these tickets will automatically transfer to the new date without any additional steps required.
Presented by RIPA & Associates, Valley Bank, and The Baldwin Group, the Tampa Pig Jig isn’t just a music festival; it’s a major fundraiser with a mission. Every year, the event donates its proceeds to NephCure, an organization dedicated to funding research for rare kidney diseases. Over time, the Pig Jig has evolved into a beloved fall tradition in Tampa, offering not just music but also a corporate barbecue competition, exciting games, and a wide range of food and drink options for attendees, all while raising money for an important cause.
Tickets for the 2024 Tampa Pig Jig are still available, with general admission priced at $130. This ticket gives attendees access to the main lawn, game areas, and food vendors, making it a perfect day out for festival-goers. And families are in luck—children aged 10 and under can attend for free when accompanied by an adult.
