Weekend events in Hamilton March 13-15, 2020

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.

March Art Crawl

When: Friday March 13th, 2020
Where: James St. N
Admission: Free

On the second Friday of every month, Hamilton’s arts and culture hub, James Street North, is transformed by a decade-old phenomenon called Art Crawl. It’s a one-stop shop to experience the city’s art, music, and food scenes, while shopping local, people watching, and taking in some city sights all at once. While there are no strict rules or schedule, the general gist is this: galleries, studios, stores and restaurants stay open late to welcome thousands of visitors who fill the sidewalks. They start arriving early evening and pack the street until late.

Trivia Night: 90’s Edition

When: Friday March 13th, 2020 from 7 pm – 10 pm
Where: Collective Arts Brewing
Admission: $10

A lot of us like to CALL ourselves ’90s kids. Even if we were only alive for the last few years of the decade – *cough* lookin’ at you, ’97s! But hey, Collective Arts doesn’t care if you actually lived it, or you’re faking nostalgia (or, you’re just the world’s biggest Fresh Prince fan); the triviamaster Andrea Pohlmann will make sure this ’90s Trivia Night is equal parts nostalgic and engagingly difficult.

The Anti-Queens w/ Bad Dates
