Don't ask me what a brat summer is but we're gonna go with it. Everything seems to be going down this Saturday, July 20th, so grab your tix (some events are FREE) and remember to stay hydrated. And don't forget your sunblock in this heatwave! See you outside and by that I mean I'll be at the 10pm event when the sun is gone! 🥵🤣
