TAMPA BAY IS RICH IN HISTORY

From its most popular time in the Roaring Twenties, Downtown Tampa has restored some of its original attractions to preserve the history. Built in 1926 as one of the most elaborate movie theaters, the Historic Tampa Theatre has maintained its historic feel and offers a movie experience unlike any other! The Floridan Palace Hotel has been meticulously restored and renovated from its original state in 1926, and reopened in 2012. For any rail enthusiasts, the Henry B. Plant Museum, a national historic landmark, was originally built in 1891 as the Tampa Bay Hotel and a stop along the rail line. And did you know, Tampa’s nickname has been the “Big Guava” since 1970, not for the abundance of guava trees for the unsuccessful quest for wild guava trees. Join us at METALCON 2021 to explore these attractions and more when we meet in person in Tampa.
