7 Incredible Things You Definitely Gotta Do This Weekend

Congratulations! You'll survived another rough week, and you've made it to the weekend.

You can finally crawl out of your hole, talk to people and head out for an amazing weekend around NYC.

I mean really, why else do we work other than to do fun stuff? We don't know about you, but we're literally always working for the weekend.  

Okay, so yeah, your bills are important, and you need a place to crash after your long nights at the club or work (like normal people).

So with some of that extra cash you got flowing out of your pockets once those bills are paid (and because you're so adept at finding all the dope free sh*t goin' down), here are some events you should definitely go to this upcoming weekend. 

You deserve this!


Friday, July 7th

1. French Restaurant Week 

This food fest is way more than just baguettes and omelettes du fromage.

Such a must-do if you're tryna ball on a budget. From now until July 16th, travel to France for just lunch or dinner if that budget is keeping you in NYC this summer.

Here are all the restaurants offering some of the most delicious French cuisine this week.


2. New York Asian Film Festival 2017


How great is this?! You can see some of the most well-made movies in their purest form this weekend as the NY Asian Film Festival premieres The Taking of Tiger Mountain, Close-Knit, Suffering of Ninko, and many others this weekend. Click here for the full schedule.


Saturday, July 8th 

3. Full Moon Music Festival

FYI: Governors Island isn't just the home to Gov. Ball, my friends.

Don't miss the ferry to yet another amazing music fest on the island this summer. Kick back with treats from different local vendors as you jam to live indie-band hits. Get your tickets here before they sell out. 


4. Arab-American and North African Street Fair
