FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 13 — SABBATH / LONG LIVE OZZY!

TWO FRIDAY NIGHTS. TWO INCREDIBLE TRIBUTE CONCERTS. ZERO GENERAL ADMISSION CHARGE. OUR TREAT!

ST. PETERSBURG, FLORIDA — What a month! What a year! And what an incredible community!

After celebrating the greatest October in Ferg’s history, thanks in large part to the Tampa Bay Rays’ unforgettable journey to the 2026 World Series and three thrilling home games at Tropicana Field, Ferg’s founder and owner Mark Ferguson, and the entire Ferg’s team have a special way of saying THANK YOU!

TWO FREE ROCK CONCERTS FOR THE ENTIRE TAMPA BAY COMMUNITY!

Whether you’re a lifelong Tampa Bay resident, a snowbird returning for another season, or a visitor from across the country or around the world, you’re invited to celebrate with us! For nearly 35 years, Ferg’s Sports Bar & Grill has been much more than a sports bar. What began in 1992 as a little converted historic gas station has grown into a beloved, 70,000-square-foot sports, dining, music and entertainment complex — a gathering place where generations of families, friends, sports fans and music lovers come together.

And now, with Ferg’s Pavilion recently voted Tampa Bay’s Best Small Concert Venue (Under 2,000 Capacity) in Creative Loafing’s 2026 Best of the Bay Awards, the celebration continues!

MARK FERGUSON: “THIS ONE’S ON US!”

“Wow! What an October!” said Ferg’s founder and owner Mark Ferguson. “In nearly 35 years, I’ve never seen anything quite like it. The Tampa Bay Rays took us all the way to the World Series, with three home games right across the street at Tropicana Field. Our community came together, people visited us from all over the world, and we experienced the greatest October in Ferg’s history.”

“When I opened Ferg’s back in 1992, I dreamed of having Major League Baseball in St. Petersburg and creating a place where everybody could come together and have a great time. Looking at what Ferg’s has become today, I’m incredibly grateful.”

“From my family to yours, and from our entire Ferg’s family, THANK YOU! You’ve supported us through the years, voted for us, celebrated with us and helped make Ferg’s such a special part of Tampa Bay.” 

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 6 — CRUSH! THE BON JOVI EXPERIENCE

KEEP THE FAITH! IT’S ONE WILD NIGHT OF BON JOVI ROCK ‘N’ ROLL!

Get ready to raise your hands, sing along and relive the unforgettable arena-rock excitement of Bon Jovi! CRUSH! The Bon Jovi Experience delivers the music, energy, look and unmistakable feel of one of rock’s most celebrated bands. Fronted by dynamic vocalist Doug Shepard, this powerhouse five-piece has spent more than a decade touring the United States and Canada, performing everywhere from intimate clubs and theaters to major casino stages and fairgrounds before audiences of up to 13,000. With soaring vocals, electrifying guitars, powerful musicianship and the kind of anthems that bring generations together, CRUSH! recreates the Bon Jovi concert experience the way the records sound and the way the arenas felt. And this Friday night, Tampa Bay gets to experience it for FREE!

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 13 — SABBATH / LONG LIVE OZZY!

FRIDAY THE 13TH GETS HEAVY! A TRIBUTE TO BLACK SABBATH AND OZZY OSBOURNE!

Calling all Black Sabbath and Ozzy Osbourne fans! Friday the 13th has never sounded so good! SABBATH / Long Live Ozzy! — The Re-Creation of Black Sabbath & Ozzy Osbourne is a full-scale concert tribute celebrating more than 50 years of legendary heavy-metal music.
