Bushwick does not really do quiet weekends. Between warehouse parties, gallery openings, markets, comedy, and whatever is happening in a backyard you have not heard of yet, the hard part is not finding something to do, it is choosing. The list above is what we would actually leave the apartment for this weekend, refreshed every week.
How we pick
We pull from the whole neighborhood, then cut it down to the events worth your Friday or Saturday night, free ones included. No filler, no sponsored slots you did not ask for. If it made the list, a real person thought it was good.
The catch with Bushwick weekends
A lot of the best stuff is announced only a few days out, a party posts the morning of, an opening goes up midweek. That is why we round it into one short weekly email, so you see it before it is over. Grab it below, or browse things to do in Bushwick any time.
