Metcalfe Plaza

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.

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!
