Our first full week of February has started and week #2 of Winterlude is underway. There are some great Winterlude events this week highlighted by the Ice Dragon Boat Races this weekend! The weather looks cold and the ice will likely be much better than last year. I attended this event last year when the ice was awful so for your entertainment, check out the finals here with this video! I also prepared one of my first reviews of the day including the race, and a concert on the same day. Read the review here.
Also this week, the theatrical productions of Othello at The Gladstone, and Little Women at Centrepointe continue. There are two Sens games, and two 67’s games for the Sports fans, and plenty of other events going on through the week. The RV show starts at the EY Centre and runs all weekend. There are also several balls/galas throughout the city if you want to get dressed up and hit the city! This weekend is jam packed with events, and I’m not even sure yet what I’ll be doing, there’s so much to choose from!!
My top three picks of the week:
- Winterlude (Ongoing, various locations and times)
- Chicago (Carleton University – Multiple Nights)
- Brent Butt Live at Algonquin Commons
