It’s the weekend and you’re looking for something better to do than Netflix and Chill, right? We get it. While we all love our downtime after a busy work week we also like to go out and have fun. Here are just a few of the fun events happening this weekend that you should go check out.

A fan of beer and puppy dogs?
