A free queer and ally adventure race where teams solve clues and complete challenges across Tampa while supporting local businesses.
The GayMazing Race kicks off at Perry Harvey Sr. Park on Saturday, October 31, from 8 AM to 12 PM. It's a queer and ally adventure race put on by Rainbow Recreation, and it's built for locals and visitors alike. The whole thing is open to everyone—queer and ally—so you don't have to be part of the community to sign up and play.
The format is pretty straightforward: teams of queer attendees and allies work together to solve clues and complete challenges across the city. The route is designed to support local businesses along the way, so as you're moving from one clue to the next, you'll be stopping in and around the shops and spots that make the neighborhood what it is. It's a four-hour morning activity, which means you're done by noon and still have the rest of your Saturday.
Because it's a team event, you'll want to pull together a group before you head out. You'll be figuring out the clues and tackling the challenges as a unit, so having a few friends you know and trust makes the whole thing a bit easier. If you're new to the city or don't have a full crew, it's still a good way to meet people—the race is as much about the people you're with as it is about the clues you're solving.
