It's that time of year in Iowa City. {Most} Students have retreated back to their hometowns and many of us townies just aren't sure what to do with all of the free time that we have suddenly acquired. But having fun in Iowa City this summer is a must, and we know just what's going on this summer. Here's where the cool kids will be this summer.
Iowa Arts Festival
The Iowa Arts Festival is a blast every year. With over 100 visual artists booths to admire, and a block dedicated to delicious food, how could you not go? Plus, there are two stages to enjoy live music throughout the whole weekend. Want an insider's tip? Tailgate will have live music in store on Saturday, June 4th performed by Justin Goodchild! Iowa Arts Festival goes from June 3rd-June 5th, for more information, click here.
IC Pride Week
Pride Week in Iowa City is a blast! From parades to markets and performances, participating in any part of Pride Week is guaranteed to be a blast. There are so many events and things going on with this event that it is worth at least checking out. Pride Week is June 13th-19th, for more information about the events, click here.
Summer Shop Crawl
They've combined our two favorite things: shopping and drinking, so we could never say no. For only $10, you get a custom wine glass, a {made} bracelet, and deals and alcohol at all participating locations. Sounds too good to be true, right? But it's not! While we would love to be the one's sipping and shopping, we have decided to take the hit and serve sangria cocktails to all of you instead while you shop! The Summer Shop Crawl will be on June 24th from 4-9pm, for more information and participating stores, click here.
Iowa City Jazz Festival
Enjoy a weekend in Iowa City with four stages set up, greasy food lining the block and finish it all off with fireworks. From July1st-3rd, Iowa City Jazz Festival is full of both well known jazz musicians, as well as the up and coming artists who want to share their music with you! What do you have to lose?

Sidewalk Sales
When things are on sale you're practically making money... Right? We think that's how it goes. Downtown retailers will be pulling out all of their last chance markdowns, which means it's the perfect time to stock up on all of your needs!
