Fun Stuff in Philly

Fairmount’s Night Market is Tonight –
6-10 p.m. along Fairmount Ave.

It’s all going down where Fairmount, Spring Garden, Francisville, and North Broad mix and mingle. This annual pop-up street food festival, in its 9th year, pays homage to Philly’s foodies and motivates locals to discover new spots right in their own hood. You might not know that Night Market is part of The Food Trust’s larger effort to build a local and healthy food economy in the region. I can get behind that! The line up for this evening (food vendors and entertainment) is extraordinary! Details here. Follow #NightMkt and #comehungry on twitter for updates. Photo: D. Tavani for Visit Philly.

Vetri Cooking Classes & Events

Pasta class with Chef Jacob Rozenberg and a cookbook dinner with Nicolas Elmi of Laurel Restaurant are just two awesome events that also include select wines for sipping. Most classes are around $200 and seat only 18 attendees (book now, they always sell out). This would make a great anniversary gift or a special birthday present! Events are posted every two months. Follow @vetricucina on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter for the latest announcements.

For Philly Folks

The Philadelphia Folk Festival (going on for nearly 6 decades) takes place over 8/15 – 8/18 and it’s not just about music. There’s camping, crafts, and no shortage of activities for the kids. Expect puppeteers, jugglers, aerialists, storytellers, hands-on crafts and of course, kid-oriented musicians gathering in Dulcimer Grove (the shady area that has become a haven for folk fans 12 and under). Get more info and tickets here.
