FAQ
1. Do I need to buy a ticket for the Bulls Block Party?
YES! The Bulls Block Party is a private, ticketed event. It is not open to the general public. You must have a ticket to get a Block Party wristband. Participating bars will not admit you or will ask you to leave if you don’t have the Block Party wristband.
2. How do I buy a ticket?
HERE! See "Tickets" above. Tickets are refundable if the event gets canceled.
3. How do I get a wristband?
Check in and get your wristband starting at 1:00 pm (VIP) or 2:00 pm (GA) on Aug. 17th at 1920 Ybor. Bring your advance-purchase ticket or buy one right there.
4. I’ll be late – where do I check in and get my wristband after the Block Party starts?
Block Party Headquarters is at 1920 Ybor. You can get your wristband there from 1:00 pm (VIP) 2:00 pm (GA) to 4:00pm.
5. Where do I park?
Ybor City has lots of paid and free parking lots and garages, and street parking is sometimes available. The parking lot behind Gaspar’s Grotto is especially convenient. If you decide you’d rather not drive yourself home, any participating bar will happily call UBER, Lyft or a taxi for you.
6. My friends aren’t USF alumni. Can they come anyway?
YES! Everybody is welcome to party with the Bulls, even ... Knights. But all participants must have a wristband (see FAQ No. 1).
7. Will the Block Party be canceled if it rains?
No – it’s August in Tampa so rain is always a possibility. The Block Party will be canceled ONLY if there’s a declared state of emergency.
8. What else should I know?
This event is hosted by the USF Greater Tampa Alumni Chapter, a group of Bulls and friends who get together regularly to have fun while supporting our alma mater and our community. You should get involved! Watch for upcoming events at usfalumni.org or ask at the Block Party.
