This Week Downtown - 07.03.24

There’s red, white, and so much to do this week downtown! A fireworks show is just the tip of the sparkler at Washington Park’s Fourth of July Celebration. Live music from local party starters, That’s What She Said, kicks off the patriotic fun tomorrow at 3PM accompanied by lawn games, pop jets, and more summer fun! Local food trucks will help you fuel up for family-friendly festivities, and cold drinks from the Sherwin-Williams Porch will keep you from melting like a popsicle all day long! The celebration is free and open to the public.

Let freedom ring and live music too at Paradise on the Point! Paradise is a free music, beer, and arts festival taking over Sawyer Point on Friday and Saturday. Enjoy performances by Badfish, Sneezy, Hyryder, The Ries Brothers, and other artists on the festival stage, indulge in a wide range of local cuisine from food vendors, sip on beverages from top local breweries, and browse an array of arts! Festivalgoers looking to level up the experience can book single-day or weekend-long VIP passes and score Paradise perks like catered meals, merchandise, and meet-and-greets with artists. Groove on over to the festival website to check out the music lineup and schedule. All ages are welcome!

Add some boom, pop, and fizz to your holiday weekend at Nostalgia Wine & Jazz Lounge! Saturday, from 3 PM, sip in style at the Summer Wine Tasting Day Party. The ticketed event promises something to delight every palate, including unique orange wines, crisp rosés, patio-pounding whites and bubbles, and light-bodied red wines perfect for enjoying during the summer months! General Admission tickets include eight wine tastings, light bites, and a front row seat to the musical stylings of DJ Xan. Book your ticket today and raise a glass to weekend plans!

Bat a thousand on an all-American holiday weekend and cheer on our Reds to victory! Cincinnati will host the Detroit Tigers and Colorado Rockies in back-to-back series at Great American Ball Park this week! Friday night’s game is set to be especially memorable thanks to a post-game patriotic drone show and celebratory Independence Day fireworks. Reserve your seats for all the action today.
