Winterfest is the next big town-run thing, I think. That's a couple weekend out tho.

How is winter fest?

varies WILDLY year to year. It's the sort of event that lets local politicians and business people grease each other up in public-but-private events and then walk out hoping not to be stopped on the street.

Worst-case it's an excuse to get drunk in a tent with people you sort of recognize.

Back in the day you'd be in for human dogsled races. That...is not a thing I would've believed existed had I not seen them with my own eyes.

Go hiking! Lowell-Dracut-Tyngsboro State Forest is really nice and there are a lot of other great trails nearby.

Bar hopping is quite the adventure here. Be sure to tip your bartender.

Bring back the human dog sleds!

Disc golf in Pelham or Haverhill.

Go to cncpt 6 if u artsy

Isn't there a bowling alley near the rickety(est) bridge? Bowl a few strings and play some DDR like it's 2004

lots of good all year hiking. shorter trails where can practice your skills in rougher conditions or at night. longer trails for when you level up

Ouch

Me so horney. U liek suckey-fuckey?

see a movie at the Luna, browse the shops, and treat yourself to ice cream

Omg they have DDR? This changes everything.

They did back in 2006 at least... Only places I can confidently say that have it these days are the Acton Bowladrome and FunWorld in Nashua. Fingers crossed for Lowell though!
