Yup, this weekend's just about as weird as that title sounds.
But weird in a good way.
Being weird, offbeat, or different is often spoken of in a negative light but it's seldom a bad thing. It's a descriptor that fits the city so perfectly, and the best of us know it's better to embrace it, because being weird is what makes this multilingual place of crumbling infrastructure and high design, freak flag flying and red tape wrapping, beautiful days and freakishly cold nights so special.
This weekend's news, events, pop-ups, openings, and more are no exception. Join in the fun of it—especially when you can come hang out with us in person.
Read on to see what we mean.
