England at Raymond James. Cliff divers in St. Pete. Tampa's June is not playing around.

Alright Tampa, we are officially in it. June is here, the heat is real, the Gulf is warm, and the afternoon storms are back on schedule like they never left. Summer in Tampa is its own thing. Most cities slow down in June. We stack the calendar. This week you've got Hank Williams Jr. closing out a Friday night at MIDFLORIDA, England taking on New Zealand in an international soccer match at Raymond James on Saturday, Red Bull Cliff Diving back at the St. Pete waterfront for the second year in a row, and a Tampa Tarpons homestand running all week long if you just want to sit outside with a cold drink and watch some baseball. Let me walk you through it.

🔥 **Colony Grill's arugula salad pizza is the meal of the summer**. New Haven style thin crust, topped post bake with a dressed arugula salad. Sounds like it shouldn't work. Works completely. Hyde Park Village location is the move.

🍽️ **Juneteenth gets a creative twist at the Tampa Edition's Arts Club**. The Arts Club on June 19 is doing a full Juneteenth dinner with local artists, live music, and a curated menu. Worth booking early.

🎵 **Tampa Bay sports bar named one of the best in America**. Buya in Seminole Heights made the national list. Part izakaya, part sports bar, all Tampa weird in the best way. If you haven't been, this is your nudge.
