Weekly on Tuesdays, 7:00 PM. Only one source reports it.

An open-mic listing site, updated Jul 18, 2026, lists Kingshead Pub's 'Originals Only' Open Mic (checked Aug 14, 2026) [s1]. Neither the day of week nor the frequency is stated.

Both sources give the same night and time, but neither confirms recent activity.

The Venue's Website suggests it may have ended.

Weekly on Thursdays, 7:00 PM. The Venue's Website does not mention it.

American Legion Post 138's own website was fully checked Aug 14, 2026, and does not mention an open mic anywhere [s1]. No source names an open mic here specifically; the day, time, and event type rest on an open-mic listing site alone.

The venue's own current homepage explicitly reads '2nd & 4th Wednesday Open Mic' (checked Aug 14, 2026) [s1]. That directly refutes a business-directory listing that had marked the venue closed as of Jul 2026.

A news article on baynews9.com lists this night, but may not be current.

Cafe Hey's open mic was originally cited via a dedicated social media page and a 2016 news feature. As of Aug 14, 2026, that page could not be read, and the venue's and the open mic's separate social media profiles both showed identical, content-free placeholder pages regardless of the address used, proving nothing either way. The 2016 feature is about ten years stale, and no current source confirms it.

A page on wmnf.org lists this event, but may not be current.

A radio station's own site turned up three separate dated calendar postings for 'Open Mic @ Deviant Libation,' one explicitly dated Wednesday, Jul 8, 2026 — about five weeks before Aug 14, 2026 [s1]. How often it recurs is not established, so the day of week and frequency are left unset rather than assumed weekly.

A page on comedyclubfinder.com lists this night, but may not be current.

Weekly on Thursdays, 8:00 PM. Only one source reports it.

Funny Bone Comedy Club's Thursday comedy open mic, doors 7 PM, show 8 PM, was recorded previously. On this Aug 14, 2026 recheck, the venue's own calendar could not be loaded, and an archive lookup for the same page also failed to return a result, so neither offers evidence either way, and the original sourcing could not be re-verified.

The venue's own event page confirms 'Mic Drop Wednesdays,' hosted by @air_rhen, dated Feb 25, 2026 [s1]. That is about five and a half months before the Aug 13, 2026 check — near the edge of what counts as current for a weekly event but still within it.

A page on wmnf.org suggests it may have ended.

New World Tampa's own confirmed schedule of solo, duo, and trio acoustic acts runs Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday in the Biergarten — not Thursday at all. A public radio station's dedicated venue page, fully checked Aug 13, 2026, never mentions an open mic by name [s1]. This looks like the listing site simply has the day wrong.

A page on cltampa.com lists this night, but may not be current.

The Venue's Website lists this night, but may not be current.

The Tuesday open jam at Pete's Place South was cited via an open-mic listing site. That site's own homepage, checked Aug 14, 2026, describes itself as a crowdsourced directory where anyone can post an event for free, so it's never sufficient evidence alone. An alt-weekly's event page for host Shawn Brown at this venue exists, but its only dated occurrence is Dec 27-28, 2022, about three and a half years stale.

A listing on badslava.com lists this night, but may not be current.

Weekly on Thursdays, 7:00 PM. Only one source reports it.

Rick's on the River is a real marina pub with daily live music, but every source, as of Aug 14, 2026, describes only a general house-band schedule of live music daily at 5 PM. No source specifically names an open mic, and none corroborates a distinct Thursday 7 PM event.

Weekly on Tuesdays, 8:30 PM. Only one source reports it.

A regional publication's own venue and community listing describes a Tuesday open mic as part of Shuffle's current schedule, with upcoming recurring Tuesdays through Sep 8, 2026 (checked Aug 14, 2026) [s1].

The venue's own Tampa location page, updated Jun 1, 2026, repeats in first-person copy that it won ‘Best Comedy Open Mic’ in the Tampa Bay Best of the Bay awards every year from 2021 through 2025 (checked Aug 13, 2026) [s1]. A stated 4-9 PM Sunday hours range versus a 9 PM start time is left unresolved.

A listing on badslava.com lists this night, but may not be current.

Weekly on Sundays, 2:00 PM. Only one source reports it.

Sweetwater Community Cafe hosts a confirmed weekly Sweetwater Sunday Farmers' Market and Music Series, but as of Aug 14, 2026 this reads as a booked, curated lineup rather than a guaranteed open-signup open mic, and that could not be resolved either way.

A listing on badslava.com lists this night, but may not be current.

Weekly on Mondays, 5:30 PM. Only one source reports it.

An earlier, unlinked source described a weekly Acoustic Jam with various artists on Mondays, 5:30-7:30 PM, at this venue. The venue's own homepage, checked Aug 14, 2026, was searched for 'open mic,' 'jam,' 'Acoustic,' and 'Monday'; the only Monday content found is a 'Mac Monday' macaroni special, with no mention of the jam. An online search found only the venue's general hours, no corroboration of a recurring Monday jam.

Both sources give the same night and time, but neither confirms recent activity.

The venue's own ticketing site organizer feed lists 'Monday Night Open Mic' as a live, upcoming event for Aug 17, 2026 (checked Aug 14, 2026) [s1]. That supersedes an older ticket listing whose series had already ended.

The sources disagree on the night.

The venue's own ticketing-site organizer feed lists 'Title Shot Tuesday: Open Mic' as a live, upcoming event for Tuesday, Aug 18, 2026 (checked Aug 14, 2026) [s1]. That is one day after a separately confirmed Monday show at the same venue. This settles Tuesday as the day, over an earlier claim of Friday that could never be verified.

The sources disagree on the night.

An open-mic listing site lists a Thursday 7 PM open mic here, but other sources instead describe live music every Sunday, no cover, as the venue's known regular weekly event, with no Thursday music night mentioned anywhere. The venue's own about page could not be read (checked Aug 14, 2026), so the contradiction remains unresolved.

Another source describes an open jam and open mic running Monday and Tuesday nights, 5 to 10 PM, hosted by musician Greg Norris. The venue's own current website confirms a recurring 'Open Mic and Jam' with Greg Norris, stating it added Monday night 'due to popular demand' (checked Aug 14, 2026) [s1].

The venue's own current website confirms ‘Join us every Tuesday for Open Mic & Jam night,’ hosted by Greg Norris (checked Aug 14, 2026) [s1].

A listing on badslava.com lists this night, but may not be current.

Weekly on Wednesdays, 7:30 PM. Only one source reports it.

Tiny Tap Tavern is a real, operating small historic dive bar, but as of Aug 14, 2026 no source describes an open mic here specifically. The day, time, and event type rest on an open-mic listing site alone, and no Venue's Website was found to check directly.

The sources disagree on the night.

As with the Wednesday listing at this same venue, the sole source is an open-mic listing site. That page reports 2024-vintage content [s1]. That is roughly two years old as of the Aug 14, 2026 check.

The Venue's Website suggests it may have ended.

Weekly on Wednesdays, 7:00 PM. The Venue's Website does not mention it.

The sole source for this event is an open-mic listing site, whose page states 'All 2024 Events can be found on Fred's Website' [s1]. That content is roughly two years old as of the Aug 14, 2026 check. This downgrades an earlier 'confirmed' status back to unverified, since the only corroboration is a listing site with stale data.

The sources disagree on the night.

An open-mic listing site names Friday 8:30 PM, but a university student-newspaper feature instead names a Sunday Open Mic Night, separately describing Thursday as karaoke night and Friday/Saturday as band nights rather than open mic. As of Aug 14, 2026 this conflict is unresolved, and both candidate days remain listed here.
