70, sunny and breezy—perfect weather for springtime festivals. Lucky you, there are a handful of great events to choose from this weekend!
- The Rittenhouse Row Spring Festival is this Saturday from 12-6pm enjoy tasty treats from Alma de Cuba, Barclay Prime, Butcher and Singer, the Continental, The Dandelion, El Rey and Parc (so much STARR deliciousness!). It’s beautiful and green in the Rittenhouse area, so slap on some sunscreen, put on your favorite weekend attire and check out the awesome vendors, food and drink. Mike McCann Team Tip: Keep an eye out for the pop-up pub from The Dandelion—they’ll serve made-to-order pub food, British ales and extra refreshing cocktails. Even if you can’t get out for the day, you could win dinner for a year at a STARR restaurant by simply entering online (or at 18th and Walnut) for just $5, proceeds go to fight hunger in the Delaware Valley.
