Hotel Options, all the rooms the first two nights are at the Tru by Hilton in the Central District of St Pete.

The next 3 nights we are at the Thunderbird on Treasure Island where Sanding Ovations will be held. https://sandingovationsmasterscup.com/

See what happens when master sculptors use their imaginations and turn piles of sand and buckets of water into “outSANDing” works of art. The masterful exhibition of sand sculpting talent at a world-class level is a big appeal.

There is plenty of room to spread out at the beach food court, beer garden and arts and crafts marketplace. Kites and night fly’s will be provided by Windworks of Maderia Beach. Local, regional, and national touring bands making waves throughout the event, “Sandlantis” is a must-see experience in beautiful Treasure Island.
