What Are You Doing This Weekend?

Iowa City is a town full of things to do, but this weekend seems especially eventful. From festivals to yoga, here are the top things to do this weekend in Iowa City:

Mission Creek Festival 


Mission Creek Festival runs April 5th -10th, and is is dedicated to building the arts and cultural community in Eastern Iowa. There's something for everyone to enjoy, from literary readings, live music, comedic performances, film showings, and more. There are so many great events, most within walking distance to each other in downtown Iowa City, so you have to check out at least one of them! You can find the calendar for those here!

Community Yoga


Iowa City is excited to that Lululemon is going to be a part of the downtown scene as they open their new showroom here! This Saturday at 10 am, Lululemon is hosting the first community yoga class, and it is completely complimentary, and all levels of experience are welcome! 

Olympic Wrestling Trials 


This year, we have the honor of hosting the Olympic Wrestling Trials! From April 9th to the 10th, Iowa City will be housing the best wrestlers this country has to offer as they work their way to Rio de Janeiro for the Summer Olympic Games. You can go for a day or the whole weekend to cheer on the USA wrestlers! Get the tickets here! And the tees at Tailgate! :) 

Spring Art Expose


Looking for something a little more laid back to do this weekend? The Spring Art Expose may be just the thing you're looking for! They have artists from all over the midwest displaying and selling their pieces. There's even a wine and craft beer tasting on Saturday, and honestly, is anything better? The event is free to the public in the Iowa Memorial Union.

Iowa vs. Illinois Baseball Game


Possibly the way to spend your weekend is cheering on our Hawkeyes as they take on Illinois this weekend in baseball! Even if you can't make it to the game, it'll be on Big Ten Network, which is the perfect excuse to invite your friends over to lounge around and watch from home. Go Hawks!


If you were stuck on what to do this weekend, hopefully you no longer are! With so much going on in IC, the only question you need to ask yourself is where to start!
