The BayCare Sound is Clearwater’s premier outdoor concert venue, located right in the heart of downtown along the waterfront at Coachman Park. With 4,000 covered seats plus an additional 5,000 lawn seats, it hosts a year-round lineup of major touring artists across genres — from rock legends and country stars to EDM, reggae, and everything in between.

The venue features a variety of beer, wine, and full-liquor bars, rotating local food trucks, and an elevated VIP experience (the Floridacentral Credit Union View) for those looking to upgrade their night. It’s just minutes from Clearwater Beach, making it an easy add-on for anyone already staying in the area, with public parking available throughout the downtown district and rideshare/public transit encouraged for event nights.

Upcoming acts on the calendar include names like The Black Keys, Deep Purple, Devo, Modest Mouse, Tedeschi Trucks Band, Rise Against, and the Avett Brothers  giving a sense of the range and caliber of shows that come through.
