The Tampa Bay area stretches from the southern tip of Pinellas County to the northern reaches of Pasco County and east to the end of Hillsborough County . It encompasses cities like; Tampa, St Petersburg, Clearwater, Tarpon, Dunedin, New Port Richey, Brandon and Plant City.

It is a geographically large market with events and activites all around the area. You'll find something to do with like minded people no matter the city or neighborhood, but the larger LGBT events typically take place in Tampa and St Petersburg.

The LGBT community in Tampa Bay is laidback, fun and active. You can always find something to do. From beaches to Busch Gardens and museums to sports teams, we have a little bit of everything.

With warm weather, outdoor sports like golf and tennis can be played all year and  for the beach lover, the water is warm all year round.

Festivals abound from food to wine to music and one of the largest LGBT film festivals in the country and the largest Gay Pride Celebration in Florida.

No matter what your interests, there is a group, activity or event that will meet your needs. Whether you are  "a snowbird", here for a visit, new to town or just back out in circulation you'll find the area welcoming, fun and a place to make friends.
