🎭 Free Shakespeare in the Park(s) @ Memorial Park | Friday (9/5) at 7:00pm – Whether you still drop “to be or not to be” into every conversation or haven’t uttered “thou” since high school, this free, lightning-fast tour of all 37 Shakespeare plays lands in Pasco, Prosser, and Richland parks, complete with raucous humor and fresh-air charm.
🐂 PBR Challenger Series @ Toyota Center | Friday (9/5) at 8:00pm – Picture two hours of bull riding mayhem, pyro blasts, and music loud enough to wake the horses outside the Toyota Center.

This weekend
🏃 K Is For Kindness 5K & 1 Mile Walk 2025 @ Columbia Point Marina Park | Saturday (9/6) at 9:00am – Lace up for a morning that’s all about movement, community, and inclusion. Whether you’re tackling the 5K or strolling the mile, every step supports autism awareness and kindness in action. Scenic riverfront views come standard, along with feel-good vibes for a great cause.
🦞 Crawfest @ Pasco Chamber Annual CrawFest | Saturday (9/6) at 11:00am – Whether you’ve sworn off boiled critters or you’re already craving Louisiana mudbugs, this riverside bash has you covered. Free tunes by the Desert Moondogs, authentic crawfish piled high, and a Columbia River backdrop that pairs perfectly with a cold drink and Cajun heat.
🤝 Celebration of Community, Diversity & Culture 2025 @ Howard Amon Park | Saturday (9/6) at 12:00pm – If you’ve been looking to taste teriyaki tacos, watch Polynesian dancers, and dodge your neighbor’s frisbee in one afternoon, swing by Howard Amon Park this Saturday. Create a full afternoon of family fun — and a few solid stories for Monday small talk.
🎨 Kids Paint a Cake @ Nanis | Sunday (9/7) at 12:00pm – Forget paper and canvas—this art project is edible. Parents and kids team up to transform a 6-inch cake into a colorful masterpiece with buttercream and tools provided. With sessions at 12, 2, and 4 pm, plus drinks included, it’s equal parts tasty, creative, and fun.
🎭 Adventures in Cosplay @ Richland Public Library | Sunday (9/7) at 1:00pm – If you’ve ever wondered what makes an adult glue foam horns to their forehead and parade around town, swing by the panel led by local cosplay pros. They’ll spill their secrets, share war stories, and show off hand-stitched armor you’ll swear is indestructible.
Next week
🚤 The Dreamboats @ Richland High School Auditorium | Monday (9/8) at 7:30pm – Whether you’re pining for a sock hop or just craving some good old rock and roll, The Dreamboats land in town with four Canadian crooners reviving 1950s and 60s hits. Expect slicked-back hair, raucous harmonies, and guitar licks that’ll cure any case of midlife ennui.
🚒 Rapid City Fire Department & First Watch Wellness | Tuesday (9/9) at 8:00am – Grab your sense of adventure, and learn to stop the bleed with Rapid City’s finest, no boring lectures here, just hands-on trauma skills from the folks who tackle chaos daily. It’s the kind of life-saving know-how you brag about at dinner parties.
🔨 Build it @ Richland Public Library | Tuesday (9/9) at 6:00pm – Nothing beats clamping together a bird feeder, a pair of sleek book ends, or a glowy luminary with your own hands. Sign up in advance, then show up early for goggles, wood chips, and the obligatory “why won’t this fit?” moment.
