Busch Gardens 2025 Food & Wine Festival Concert List and Times

The Busch Gardens Food & Wine Festival in Tampa will feature some great bands for their 2025 concert series. While the festival itself takes place on select Friday, Saturdays, and Sundays — concerts will only take place on Saturdays and Sundays. The concerts can start any time between 6:00pm and 8:00pm — so please be sure to check the schedule for the group you want to see.

All concerts will take place this year at the Festival Field Stage, located past the Festival Walkway and behind the Iron Gwazi attraction. There's usually also a smaller stage closer to the food booth trail — that features local live music acts during the festival.

Concerts are included with daily admission to the park but ... there is a VIP Seating Package Upgrade that will get you a "best seat in the house" with access to a reserved seating area on the concert field. The package includes one beverage certificate that's valid at the VIP Bar. Additional beverages will cost extra. The VIP Seating Packages start at $39 dollars (plus tax and ticketing fees) based on which group or band and date you select.
