Poison’s Bret Michaels Announces 2023 Tampa Music Festival

It’s not a Poison concert. But it’s the next best thing. And Bret Michaels says it’ll be nothing but a good… vibe.

“Bret Michael’s Parti-Gras 2023” is coming to the MIDFLORIDA Credit Union Amphitheatre in Tampa Friday, August 4, 2023. Bret’s got a full roster of 70s, 80s and 90s hitmakers for the party. Tickets go on sale Friday at 10m through Live Nation. Or there are various presales beginning Thursday morning at 10am with the code CHEER, according to the venue’s Facebook.

Besides Bret Michaels, you’ll see Night Ranger who are celebrating their 40th anniversary as a band, Jefferson Starship, Mark McGrath (lead singer of Sugar Ray), and Steve Augeri (one time lead singer for Journey).
