Annapolis hosts several new and interesting events this week, including a party at Great Frogs Winery, concerts on the water, wine and beer events, and cruises that welcome dogs and kids. See what piques your interest below.
Annapolis Entertainment
Live music and summer pair together so harmoniously and we likely have USNA Band to thank for that. This Tuesday, see the Electric Brigade perform live at City Dock from 7 to 8 p.m. for free. The show is kid-friendly, easy-going, and moves effortlessly from classic to contemporary. No tickets are needed. Visit www.usna.edu if you’d like more information.
The two-parter by The Colonial Players of Annapolis sees its last show this week. This or That is a show too big for one night, meaning performances are split into slates: This happens the 25th and 27th and That happens the 24th and 26th. Both slates showcase a series of one-act shows that are sure to please. Head to www.thecolonialplayers.org to read the full schedule and see if you’re a This or a That kind of person.
The light-hearted and fun Annapolis Maritime Museum Summer Concert Series continues this Thursday. The local band showcased this week is D’Vibe & Conga, a bongo and jazz group. The show begins at 8:30 p.m. and is open to all–including kids. Bring lawn chairs and cash to purchase beer, wine, and cocktails. More info is available at http://fourriversheritage.org.
Another great Friday night event worth checking out is the Great Frogs Winery’s Vine Yard Bash. The event lasts from 7 to 11 p.m. and includes live music, food via food trucks, a movie, and (of course) wine. Tickets are $10 per person. Bring cash for wine and food purchases. The event takes place on the Great Frogs property. Learn more at www.greatfrogs.com.
