What’s Happening in Rockford: 3 Events You Shouldn’t Miss

First up: Edgewater Neighborhood Garage Sales!

This is one of the biggest garage sale events of the year.  On May 3rd, which is this weekend, bring cash just in case you find something to take home! So many families will have garage sales throughout the neighborhood.  It starts at 8AM and goes through 3PM.  There's also a map of participating sales so you don't have to wonder where to go!

Next, save the date—Rockford City Market returns on May 16th! 

It's back at the City Market Pavilion in downtown Rockford.  Live music, local vendors, food trucks, a cold drink, and great time with friends.  We're less than a month out!

And finally, Friday Night Flix at the Coronado this summer! 

Mark your calendars for June 13th, July 11th, and August 1st. You can catch Wicked, Moana 2, and Inside Out 2 for absolutely free down at the Coronado for Friday Night Flix this summer.  Food vendors, kids activities. face painting, and so much more will be happening.

So, are you adding all of these to your calendar now?  I already did.  No excuses, you gotta at least be at one of these.  I'm attending all of them, for sure!
