SUMMARY:Trivia & Taco Tuesday with DJ Trivia RI at Surf Cantina
DESCRIPTION:Trivia & Taco Tuesday with DJ Trivia RI at Surf Cantina turns Tuesday nights in downtown Westerly into a mix of tacos\, drinks\, and friendly competition. With $3 tacos running from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. and trivia kicking off at 7 p.m.\, the weekly event blends casual dinner plans with the kind of lively group atmosphere that keeps tables talking\, laughing\, and debating answers long after the first round begins. \nTrivia & Taco Tuesday with DJ Trivia RI brings a more energetic spin to the usual trivia-night format thanks to DJ Trivia’s fast-moving style and crowd interaction. Teams gather around baskets of tacos and drinks while competing through rounds that can shift from pop culture and music to sports\, movies\, and random knowledge. The setup works especially well inside Surf Cantina’s coastal-inspired atmosphere\, where the laid-back vibe keeps the night social even for people who are mostly there for the tacos and margaritas. \nTuesday nights in Westerly tend to feel quieter before the summer weekend crowds fully arrive\, which gives events like this a strong locals-night feel. Surf Cantina’s Canal Street location adds to that energy\, drawing groups of friends\, coworkers\, and trivia regulars looking for an easy midweek outing that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Between the taco specials\, upbeat trivia atmosphere\, and downtown setting\, the night offers a fun excuse to break up the workweek without overcomplicating it. \n

SUMMARY:Taco Tuesday at Milestone Mystic
DESCRIPTION:Taco Tuesday at Milestone Mystic  brings weekly margaritas\, rotatng taco specials\, and waterfront-night-out energy to downtown Mystic every Tuesday starting at 5 p.m. Sitting right along Water Street\, Milestone already carries the kind of lively coastal atmosphere that feels made for warm-weather evenings\, and Taco Tuesday adds an easy excuse to settle in with friends after work or stretch dinner into a full night out. \nTaco Tuesday at Milestone keeps the menu fresh by rotating taco selections each week\, giving regulars something new to look forward to beyond the usual specials. Guests can grab three tacos for $18 while pairing them with $10 margaritas and sangrias or $5 Modelos and Coronas. The combination leans casual and social rather than overcomplicated\, creating the kind of weekly gathering spot where people linger over drinks\, split appetizers\, and watch the evening crowd build as the night goes on. \nThe location itself adds a lot to the experience. Water Street tends to come alive in the evenings during the warmer months\, with visitors moving between restaurants\, bars\, and the nearby waterfront while Mystic’s downtown energy shifts from daytime tourism to nightlife. Taco Tuesday fits naturally into that rhythm\, offering an affordable midweek outing with enough variety to keep locals and visitors coming back throughout the summer season. \n

SUMMARY:Glow Nights TreeTrails Adventures
DESCRIPTION:Glow Nights in May brings a completely different atmosphere to TreeTrails Adventures Mystic\, turning the aerial adventure park into a glowing nighttime playground every Friday evening throughout May. Running from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m.\, the experience transforms the wooded climbing courses into a colorful mix of lights\, music\, and movement as the sun goes down over Mystic. Instead of the usual daytime ropes-course vibe\, the park takes on the feeling of an outdoor nighttime festival tucked into the trees. \nGlow Nights in May mixes adventure with a party-like atmosphere\, complete with glow bracelets\, glowing necklaces\, music\, and illuminated climbing trails suspended high above the forest floor. Guests can move through rope bridges\, zip lines\, and aerial obstacles while surrounded by shifting lights that make the entire park feel almost dreamlike after dark. The experience leans heavily into the fun of summer nights arriving early\, blending adrenaline and playful energy in a way that feels especially geared toward groups of friends\, couples\, teens\, and adventurous families looking for something different to do on a Friday night. \nThe event has become one of TreeTrails’ most popular seasonal experiences\, especially as warmer weather returns to the Connecticut shoreline region. Reservations are strongly recommended because Glow in the Park nights tend to fill quickly once people start sharing videos and photos online. Between the music drifting through the trees\, the glowing equipment\, and the excitement of climbing through the forest at night\, the event delivers the kind of memorable outdoor experience that feels closer to an adventure attraction than a traditional ropes course. \n

SUMMARY:Thursdays Aboard ARGIA: Sea Music with Geoff Kaufman
DESCRIPTION:Thursdays Aboard ARGIA: Sea Music with Geoff Kaufman brings traditional sea music and maritime storytelling onto the water aboard ARGIA for a uniquely coastal live music experience in Mystic. Guests sail through the harbor and surrounding waters while enjoying performances by Geoff Kaufman\, longtime former Foreman of Interpretive Music Programs at Mystic Seaport Museum and director of the museum’s renowned Sea Music Festival. \nKnown throughout the maritime folk music world\, Kaufman specializes in sea chanteys\, sailor ballads\, and traditional music connected to working life on the water. His performances blend music\, storytelling\, humor\, and historical context into an atmosphere that feels deeply tied to New England’s seafaring history. Hearing these songs aboard a traditional sailing vessel adds an authenticity that turns the evening into something closer to a living maritime tradition than a standard concert. \nGuests are encouraged to bring a picnic basket and a bottle of wine\, helping create a relaxed sunset atmosphere while the schooner moves through the Mystic area under sail. The combination of live folk music\, ocean air\, and historic surroundings makes the experience especially appealing for visitors looking for something quieter and more atmospheric than a typical night out.

SUMMARY:Glow Nights TreeTrails Adventures
DESCRIPTION:Glow Nights in May brings a completely different atmosphere to TreeTrails Adventures Mystic\, turning the aerial adventure park into a glowing nighttime playground every Friday evening throughout May. Running from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m.\, the experience transforms the wooded climbing courses into a colorful mix of lights\, music\, and movement as the sun goes down over Mystic. Instead of the usual daytime ropes-course vibe\, the park takes on the feeling of an outdoor nighttime festival tucked into the trees. \nGlow Nights in May mixes adventure with a party-like atmosphere\, complete with glow bracelets\, glowing necklaces\, music\, and illuminated climbing trails suspended high above the forest floor. Guests can move through rope bridges\, zip lines\, and aerial obstacles while surrounded by shifting lights that make the entire park feel almost dreamlike after dark. The experience leans heavily into the fun of summer nights arriving early\, blending adrenaline and playful energy in a way that feels especially geared toward groups of friends\, couples\, teens\, and adventurous families looking for something different to do on a Friday night. \nThe event has become one of TreeTrails’ most popular seasonal experiences\, especially as warmer weather returns to the Connecticut shoreline region. Reservations are strongly recommended because Glow in the Park nights tend to fill quickly once people start sharing videos and photos online. Between the music drifting through the trees\, the glowing equipment\, and the excitement of climbing through the forest at night\, the event delivers the kind of memorable outdoor experience that feels closer to an adventure attraction than a traditional ropes course. \n

SUMMARY:Jason Mraz
DESCRIPTION:Still Yours Tour with Special Guest Gregory Page \nWith touches of folk\, jam band rhythms\, hip-hop\, and soft rock\, Jason Mraz has built a sound that feels as relaxed and sun-soaked as the California coast he calls home. His music blends playful humor with genuine emotion\, creating a style that’s both easygoing and deeply personal. \nMraz first broke through with “The Remedy (I Won’t Worry)” from his 2002 debut album\, *Waiting for My Rocket to Come*. By the time he reached global success with “I’m Yours” in 2008—a Grammy-nominated hit for Song of the Year—he had already established himself as one of the defining singer-songwriters of his generation. That same era brought major success with *We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things.*\, which climbed to number three on the Billboard 200. \nIn 2010\, Mraz took home two Grammy Awards: Best Male Pop Vocal Performance for “Make It Mine” and Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals for “Lucky\,” his duet with Colbie Caillat. He followed that momentum with another major hit\, “I Won’t Give Up\,” from his 2012 album *Love Is a Four Letter Word*\, which reached number two in the U.S. and leaned into a warm\, soul-inspired sound. \nWhile “I Won’t Give Up” marked his final Top 40 single\, Mraz continued to build a strong presence with albums that balanced upbeat energy and romantic themes. Releases like 2014’s *Yes!* and 2018’s *Know.* both charted highly\, showing his staying power even as the musical landscape shifted. During this time\, he also expanded into theater\, appearing on Broadway in Sara Bareilles’ musical *Waitress*. \nIn the 2020s\, Mraz has continued to evolve while staying true to his core message of optimism and connection. His 2023 album\, *Mystical Magical Rhythmical Radical Ride*\, leans into a disco-inspired sound\, proving that his music can still surprise while keeping that signature sense of joy intact.

SUMMARY:Fuel
DESCRIPTION:at The Wolf Den \nIf you came up on late ’90s and early 2000s rock\, this one hits right in that space. Fuel brings their post-grunge\, radio-dominating sound to Mohegan Sun Arena on June 5 at 8 PM\, pulling from a catalog that defined that era of alt-rock. Formed in the early ’90s\, the band broke through with their debut Sunburn and followed it with multi-platinum success\, becoming one of the most recognizable rock acts of the time. \nThe setlist is built around songs that still land hard live. Tracks like “Shimmer\,” “Hemorrhage (In My Hands)\,” and “Bad Day” weren’t just hits—they became staples of rock radio\, with “Hemorrhage” later ranked among the top alternative songs of its era. Their sound blends heavy guitar work with melodic\, emotional hooks\, giving their music that mix of intensity and atmosphere that carries well in a live setting. \nLive\, Fuel leans into that balance—loud\, tight\, and just polished enough to keep the songs hitting the way people remember them. It’s not a nostalgia act phoning it in… it’s a band still built around songs that connect\, especially in a room full of people who grew up with them. If you’re looking for a night of straight-up rock with real staying power\, this one delivers exactly what you want without overcomplicating it.
