Northern, RI – What is there to do this weekend in northern Rhode Island?
We’re so glad you asked.
From the usual trivia, karaoke and open mic nights, to special events including a game dinner, theater auditions and a cemetery history tour, we have you covered with our weekly roundup of everything taking place right here in our small towns.
This week, Bravo Brewing Company hosts it first trivia night on Thursday – with prizes for the winners – and Cady’s Tavern will hold the first bike run of the season on Saturday. Cheer on the runners at the Northmen 5 K Saturday morning, or head over to Acotes Field for a parade and food trucks to celebrate opening day for Glocester Little League.
And of course, you can find live music every night of the week.
Whatever you do, we hope you enjoy it – and find time to support these great local businesses and organizations.
