Game TIME
Pro sports fans, we have exciting games and events happening in the area regardless of the season.
BASEBALL
Let’s start with America’s pastime. St. Pete-Clearwater is the spring training headquarters of two MLB teams, giving you an exciting chance to watch some of the game’s superstars and promising newcomers in action. Catch a Philadelphia Phillies game at BayCare Ballpark in Clearwater or head over to TD Ballpark in Dunedin to see the Toronto Blue Jays play in their southern home. The New York Yankees (Tampa), Pittsburgh Pirates (Bradenton), Baltimore Orioles (Sarasota), Detroit Tigers (Lakeland) and Atlanta Braves (North Port) are also less than an hour away during spring training season. As Tropicana Field undergoes extensive repairs, the two-time American League pennant-winning Tampa Bay Rays — St. Pete’s beloved home team — are playing at George M. Steinbrenner Field in Tampa for the entirety of the 2025 season, which stretches from March to September. Steinbrenner Field is located directly across the street from Raymond James Stadium, a quick drive north on Interstate 275 from St. Pete.

SOCCER
If you’re a soccer fan, plan on attending a fast-paced Tampa Bay Rowdies game at the scenic 7,500-seat Al Lang Stadium on the downtown St. Pete bayfront, or head over to the downtown Tampa area to check out the USL Super League’s Tampa Bay Sun, Tampa Bay’s first professional women’s soccer team.
FOOTBALL
If American football is more your speed, take a brief drive over to Raymond James Stadium in Tampa to watch the NFL’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers play. The stadium also hosts two college bowl games each year: the Gasparilla Bowl in December and the ReliaQuest Bowl on New Year’s Day.
HOCKEY
Hockey lovers can take in the nonstop action of the Tampa Bay Lightning, two-time NHL Stanley Cup winners since 2020, at Amalie Arena in downtown Tampa. You can either drive over the Howard Frankland Bridge or take the Cross Bay Ferry from downtown St. Pete across the bay and back again after the game wraps.
RACING
Let’s shift gears (literally) to the annual Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg, which brings powerful IndyCars roaring through closed streets along the St. Pete waterfront every March. Want to witness even more speed? Check out the Clearwater Offshore Nationals in the fall, one of the top boat races in Florida.
GOLF
The PGA Tour’s Valspar Championship is held at the renowned Copperhead Course at Innisbrook Resort & Golf Club in Palm Harbor each spring, bringing with it some of the world’s top golfers and thousands of spectators. Speaking of major golf tournaments, the LPGA Tour's The ANNIKA returns to Belleair in November.
