Here is a quick snapshot of what’s happening around town the next 48 hours.
STUFF TO DO
Friday: Starting at 4 p.m., the Art Crawl with Critical Mass is a wonderful opportunity to explore local galleries, meet talented artists, and discover the creativity that makes Brighton’s arts community so vibrant. Stroll from one location to the next, take in a variety of artistic styles, and enjoy an inspiring afternoon throughout downtown Brighton.
Friday: Starting at 6 p.m., Friday Night Cruise-In is a summer tradition where old friends, new faces, and plenty of beautifully restored vehicles come together for an evening of conversation and classic cars. Whether you’re bringing your own ride or simply stopping by to admire the lineup, it’s a fun and relaxed way to spend a Friday evening at 727 William Street, beside Big Boy Burgers, in Cobourg.
Saturday: Starting at 8 a.m. in Cobourg and Port Hope, and 9 a.m. in Campbellford, Saturday mornings are made for wandering the farmers’ markets, filling your bags with fresh local produce, homemade baking, flowers, and handcrafted goods while catching up with the people who make and grow them. Take your time browsing the stalls, support local vendors, and enjoy the community atmosphere at Rotary Harbourfront Park in Cobourg, 56 Queen Street in Port Hope, or downtown Campbellford.
Saturday: Starting at 11 a.m., the Northumberland Ribfest and Music Festival brings a full day of great food, live entertainment, and summer fun to Cobourg’s waterfront. Come hungry for mouth-watering ribs and other festival favourites, then grab a lawn chair and enjoy the music while supporting the Rotary Club of Cobourg and its community projects at Victoria Park in Cobourg.
