Ybor City Naval Invasion 25 Jan
Come aboard the SS American Victory and prepare for the mock naval invasion of Ybor City! Boarding begins at 10:30am with the battle starting at noon. Water boats from the Tampa Fire Department, the Naval Reserve and Marine Towing, all armed with water cannons will be battling it out with boats from the Davis Islands Yacht Club. The Invasion is family friendly and a part of Tampa’s rich maritime heritage. Event proceeds will support the American Victory. Entry fee includes a tour of the ship, access to the museum and stockpiles of Cuban bread to defend the ship against the invaders. Water will be flying so dress accordingly. Ponchos will also be available for purchase. There will be some dry areas available but plan to get wet. Cost is $10 for Adults & $5 for Children. Parking is available at the Florida Aquarium lot for $6 or the Port Authority garage for $2 per hour.
