Editorial Review for Vinoy Park – by Eric Vician, Mary Lou Janson
Activities
Whether picnicking within view of The Pier, sprawling out on a blanket or tossing a football across the flat, grassy field, you'll find this an ideal place to spend idle time on an eye-pleasing patch of green. Bordered by a sidewalk, the park features walkers, runners and in-line skaters steadily streaming by at all hours.
The Scenery
Adjacent to the Renaissance Vinoy Resort, the park shares the shoreline with a playground, a beach and nearby North Shore Park and Pool, but little else. Nothing blocks the park's unspoiled view of Tampa Bay--that means no facilities other than a stark sculpture that adds an artistic touch to the grounds.
Big Events
Annual celebrations include a Fourth of July party, jazz concerts, Ribfest in November, Starfest in May and Taste of Pinellas in June.

Insider Tips
Early Birds Get the SpotsFree parking surrounds the park but events easily attract crowds of 50,000, so don't count on a close-in space, especially if you procrastinate.
Free If by SeaIt would behoove boat owners to anchor just off shore during concerts. You won't see much, but the music is loud enough to enjoy.
