This Weekend in Tacoma

Share on Twitter

Have you decided what to do this weekend? No? Never fear because there is a lot going on. And most of it is inexpensive or free! Here are a few ideas:

  • St Nicholas’ Greek Orthodox Church hosts the 50th annual Greek Festival this Friday – Sunday. If you haven’t been before I highly recommend it. There are traditional Greek dance performances, but the real draw is the food. Admission is free, so just pay as you eat. The News Tribune had a great article on the food in yesterday’s paper.

  • The Broadway Center is continuing to be a hub of community and the arts with the Fall Free For All. The event is spread out over downtown, features 75 (!) events and activities, and did I mention it’s free? You do have to get a free wristband from the BCPA will call window. With only a quick glance at the line up I found ballet, giant puppets, ukelele, lectures and some fabulous music performers. For all the details, including how to get a wristband, click here.
  • The Marine View Church in NE Tacoma is hosting a Jazz LIVE series. The concerts are free, and a partnering with several local restaurants for a discount after the show. This Sunday the Matt Jorgensen Band will be playing. Visit the church’s website here for more details. The News Tribune also has more info here.
