Looking for something fun to do this weekend? Look no further. We’ve found a wide range of events in and around Hamilton for people of all ages and interests to enjoy.
Here’s what’s happening in the city this weekend.
Movie Making Camp Day
When: Friday February 21st, 2020 from 9 am – 3:30 pm
Where: Staircase Theatre
Admission: $60. Buy tickets here.
This one-day movie camp is an opportunity for media arts education on the HWDSB strike day. This “mini camp” will be a shortened version of the main camps with the goal of a very, very short film being produced that will also screen at the Hamilton Film Festival in November! Acting, directing, stop motion and using the camera and sound equipment will all be a part of this.
Artist Pop Up With Mystery Meat Design
When: Friday February 21st, 2020 from 5 pm – 9 pm
Where: Collective Arts Brewing
Admission: Free
Brandon Serbec, the creative mind behind Mystery Meat Design, will be visiting the Beer Hall for a pop up art gallery! Brandon’s work is an extension of all the things that inspire him – music, food, travel, photography. He spends most of his time designing for bands, restaurants, photographers and business start-ups. Brandon’s piece, “Galactic Central Sun” will soon be feature on Series 15 cans of Raspberry Dry-Hopped Sour, while previously he was featured on cans of IPA No. 11.
We the Nordic

Blue Rodeo
When: Friday February 21st, 2020 at 8 pm
Where: FirstOntario Concert Hall
Admission: Prices vary. Buy tickets here.
When fans lined Toronto’s Queen Street to get into clubs where Blue Rodeo was performing in the mid-1980s, the band felt as though they had achieved success. And, in fact, they had. But that success has grown exponentially through the ensuing three decades since they formed, and by staying authentic and true to themselves, Canada continues its enduring love affair with Blue Rodeo.
