Well, it happened. August sure did slip away into a moment in time, and September is already two weeks old and I’m still trying to get to the beach one more time. It’s one of the best months for events around town, with the weather finally cooperating, and a returned feeling of routine, and needing to make the most of the weekends. Whether it’s live music, party vibes, cozy theatre, or getting involved in the community — our city has you covered.
Things have been hot here in Ottawa as of late, but the cool down is coming, just in time for the weekend. There is so much going on around town, so get out and enjoy yourself!
Convening in virtual space from June 25 to 27, “a graph, a lovely tree” will engage with some ways in which artists continue to work within the digital medium, its problematic challenges and its potential for building communities.
There are some new outdoor activities to enjoy this weekend. We are now able to kick a soccer ball around, play a round of disc golf, shoot some hoops, or pop an ollie at the skate parks.

We’re still enjoying the pretty part of winter, and slowing down a little in the process
Welcome to the first snow covered weekend in the city. If the cold temperatures and slippery sidewalks aren’t enough to make you think like a bear and hibernate this weekend, there is plenty to do out and about in Ottawa. So get bundled up and get out there. We promise you it’ll be worth it!
We’ve tried to pack as much as possible into this roundup, so read closely, text your crew, and have fun!
Sonicity features scores for seven routes and there are tentative plans to involve more composers.

Paint the town [insert colour(s) of choice]! Abounding in colour, sound and taste, this Ottawa weekend is one for the senses.
Ottawa, I know we’ve been suffering – every winter, it seems rougher than the year before. Now that it’s finally capri weather though, let’s celebrate summer with some good vibes… it’s festival season!
