0 47


After a long weekend and a brutally hot week, we have to confess that we haven’t exactly set any productivity records the past few days. Are you with us? So let’s make up for it this weekend by having more than our fair share of fun. And do we have some great ideas, from amazing operas (Cleopatra?!) to a killer horror flick and mouthwatering bruschetta.

If you’re going out to a show, festival or meal, be sure to check the venue or restaurant website for the latest COVID safety updates before you go.

4 SIP: Take a brewery day trip to Morgan Hill

Beer writer Jay Brooks has been doggedly circling the Bay Area checking out the best breweries we have to offer. His latest stop is Morgan Hill where beer (and cider) fans have plenty to cheer about.

5 WATCH: The best horror film of the year?

“Barbarian,” opening this weekend, is a lot more than just a haunted Airbnb movie. It might be the best fright-flick you see all year.

The beloved influential pop/rock band is finally returning to the Bay Area in a few weeks. So we came up with a playlist of the band’s best 25 songs to get you ready (yeah, we’re a little obsessive like that).
