Summer is not over, no matter how many back-to-school ads or Thanksgiving decorations you come across. Whether you are new to Ottawa (welcome!), re-acquainting yourself with town and campus, or just itching to get out of the house this weekend to make the most of summer, we have it all here. This weekend’s major focus seems to be local art and culture, so there is no better time to support local talent in the neighbourhoods we live in.
We’ve tried to pack as much as possible into this roundup, so read closely, text your crew, and have fun!
We all survived the Heat Apocalypse of 2019, and for that alone we earned ourselves a nice weekend in the 613.
Nothing beats a summer weekend, and the weeks are beginning to feel shorter and shorter as the days get longer.
Mid June has arrived, and with it, the warm weather and festivals! This weekend there are so many cool things to do that span a few days or more, that it’s going to be a doozy trying to fit everything in!
This weekend’s Doors Open event is Ottawa’s annual opportunity to explore a side of the city that is rarely available to the public.
The month of May has just blown by, and this weekend is going to be just as packed as every other weekend since the sun reappeared! The Tulip Festival is officially over, but tulips are still blooming all over the city, making for another colourful spring weekend. Get out there to enjoy them, and check out different corners of the city for some cool happenings.
Baseball is back, summer is here, and life begins anew!
It has been a rollercoaster of a week here in the 613, and between the crazy weather, the flooding and the start of a new month we all deserve a weekend to recharge and reconnect with good people and places!
