The year continues to fly by and, somehow, we are already approaching mid-October! We are fortunate to have a long weekend of great weather ahead of us, so get out there and enjoy yourselves, folks!

Happy October! There’s plenty on the go this weekend so let’s jump right in!

The first weekend of fall is shaping up nicely in the 613. The leaves are turning, the apples are ripe, and things are starting to get spooky! Take in some cool walking tours, a cozy movie, some great shopping, or a soccer game and see where the city takes you.

The truly final weekend of the summer is upon us and, whether you are soaking up every last second of the season, or celebrating the impending arrival of fall, there is so much to do here in Ottawa to enjoy this weekend.

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.

Welcome (back) to Ottawa! After a busy, hot, and fun summer, it’s back to school/spooky/cozy fall drink season.

The final weekend of August is upon us and, while summer might be winding down, there is still a lot to do around town to enjoy what is left of the season.

August just keeps getting better, and after a few cool days to catch our breath, the heat is back on for the weekend, which is stacked with great stuff to do. Whether you’re looking for some theatre, sports, music or Capital Pride celebrations the city we love has you covered. Stay safe and stay hydrated!

This September, Mirror Mountain will take place from Sept. 5-7 at ODD Box in Arts Court, located at 2 Daly Ave.

Happy Capital Pride Ottawa! There are plenty of cool events happening this weekend (and beyond!) to celebrate pride in the capital, plus a bunch of great music and theatre shows all weekend long.

Well friends, the heat is back. Let’s make the most of it and take advantage of the weekend to soak up all the summer vibes as you enjoy events as diverse as Craft Beer Week, Shakespeare in the Park, an indie bookstore fest, and outdoor movies.

Ottawa Craft Beer Week (OCBW) is back, and as lots of us continue to think local, and support local Canadian businesses, this is the perfect opportunity to explore the best beers in the city. Building on last year’s success, the second edition of the week long celebration follows the same, simple model to make it easy to try new beers, meet new brewers and find your next favourite hangout.

Happy long weekend friends! It’s finally colling down enough to take in the best of what the city has to offer in the summertime, and we’ve got you covered. Whether it’s theatre, live music, sports or cinema our beautiful city has it.
