14 Tampa chefs in one room tonight. Here's the rest of your week.

Juneteenth wrapped last week with Curtis Hixon still humming from the crowd. Independence Day is nine days out. In between, Tampa Bay has a full calendar that most people will miss. Tonight is the Creative Loafing Meet the Chefs event at The Vault with 14 local chefs who are actually running the food scene right now. Comedian Godfrey takes the Funny Bone in Ybor for three nights starting Friday. St. Pete Pride is one of the largest celebrations in the Southeast this month, drawing 300,000 people to a city that does it correctly. Bosc in Hyde Park and Fusillo in the EDGE District are both recent openings that locals still have not caught up to. The Lightning made a significant roster move before July 1 free agency. And if you want a free nightly event on the Gulf that most Tampa Bay residents have never attended despite it running every single night since 1995, keep reading. Full breakdown below.

🍽️ **Fourteen Tampa Bay chefs in one room tonight at The Vault is the food event of the week and possibly the summer**. The Creative Loafing Meet the Chefs lineup represents the kitchens that are actually moving this city's food scene. If you have a ticket, go. If you do not, check for remaining availability at meetthechefstampabay.com.

🎤 **Godfrey at Funny Bone Ybor is three nights of national-level stand-up in a neighborhood that was made for exactly this**. Friday through Sunday, tickets from $32. The Ybor block before or after the show is worth the trip on its own.

🌈 **St. Pete Pride draws 300,000 people to one of the most genuinely celebratory events in Florida and the Tampa Bay food and bar scene builds a whole week around it**. The energy spills across the bay and into Tampa in ways you can feel even if you are not going to the main event.
