SUMMARY:Misquamicut Drive-In: JAWS
DESCRIPTION:Misquamicut Drive-In: JAWS brings one of the most iconic summer thrillers ever made back to the big screen just steps from the shoreline at Misquamicut Drive-In. Steven Spielberg’s legendary 1975 blockbuster transformed beach season forever with its story of a quiet coastal town terrorized by a great white shark lurking just offshore. Even decades later\, the tension still works. The slow build\, the unforgettable score\, and the feeling that something might be circling beneath the water make JAWS the kind of movie that feels especially perfect to watch near the ocean on a warm summer night. \nThe Misquamicut Drive-In has become one of Rhode Island’s most nostalgic seasonal attractions\, blending old-school drive-in culture with the atmosphere of a beach town summer evening. Cars line up facing the massive outdoor screen while families\, couples\, and groups of friends settle into lawn chairs\, truck beds\, and open tailgates with snacks and blankets. On nights when the ocean breeze rolls through the area\, the experience feels less like a normal movie screening and more like a community gathering wrapped in neon lights\, salt air\, and movie quotes everyone somehow already knows by heart. \nPart of what gives the drive-in its charm is how immersive the setup becomes after dark. Guests tune their car radios to 96.3 FM\, where the movie audio is broadcast directly into vehicles\, creating an unexpectedly cinematic experience\, especially with the windows down on a cool night. Speakers near the front rows also project sound toward the screen area\, adding another layer to the atmosphere for guests sitting outside their vehicles. Between the beachside setting\, the giant screen glowing against the night sky\, and the collective reactions during JAWS’ most famous scenes\, it becomes the kind of summer memory people talk about long after the credits roll. \nRules and Suggestions:\n• Tune vehicle radios to 96.3 FM for movie audio\n• Guests sitting near the screen can also hear audio through front speaker systems\n• Lawn chairs and blankets are encouraged for guests watching outside their vehicles\n• Arrive early for better parking spots and easier entry\n• Be respectful of neighboring vehicles by keeping headlights off during the movie\n• Outside snacks may be allowed\, but guests should check event policies before arriving\n• Beach evenings can become cool after sunset\, so bringing layers is recommended \n

SUMMARY:Jo Dee Messina
DESCRIPTION:There’s something about a Jo Dee Messina show that feels instantly familiar… like stepping into a song you’ve known for years. She came up in that late ’90s country wave with a sound that blended upbeat\, radio-ready hooks with just enough edge to stand out. Tracks like “Heads Carolina\, Tails California” and “Bye Bye” still hit with that same energy\, while her ballads bring a more personal\, grounded side that longtime fans really connect with. \nOn her current tour run\, Messina leans into both sides of that catalog. You get the fun\, high-energy sing-alongs… the kind where the crowd jumps in without needing a cue… but also those quieter moments where the storytelling comes through. Her voice still carries that mix of strength and warmth\, and there’s an ease to the way she moves through a set\, like she’s not trying to prove anything… just sharing the songs the way they’re meant to land. \nLive\, it turns into something that feels less like a big production and more like a shared night out. You’ve got fans who grew up on these songs alongside newer listeners discovering them in real time\, all meeting in the middle somewhere. It’s upbeat\, a little nostalgic\, and easy to settle into… the kind of show where you show up for the hits but end up staying for the feeling of it.

SUMMARY:Dance Saturday at THE MISFIT CLUB
DESCRIPTION:Dance Saturday at THE MISFIT CLUB brings late-night dance energy to downtown Mystic every Saturday with DJs\, theme nights\, and a growing nightlife crowd looking for something a little louder after dinner hours wind down around town. Doors open early in the evening before the dance floor fully shifts into party mode at 7:30 p.m.\, with modern dance music and big-city club energy taking over the space for the rest of the night. \nWhile Mystic is often associated with quieter waterfront evenings and laid-back coastal bars\, spots like THE MISFIT CLUB are helping carve out a younger nightlife scene built around DJs\, dancing\, themed parties\, and late-night social crowds. The venue leans into a more playful and high-energy atmosphere than many traditional shoreline spots\, with rotating themes like “Pink Underground” adding an extra layer of unpredictability from week to week. \nFor anyone looking to trade vineyard sunsets and seafood dinners for flashing lights\, dance music\, and a packed floor later in the evening\, Dance Saturday offers one of the more nightlife-focused experiences happening around southeastern Connecticut right now. Organizers encourage guests to follow the club’s Instagram page for updates on upcoming themes\, music\, and special event nights. \n

SUMMARY:Brickwrecks: Sunken Ships in LEGO Bricks
DESCRIPTION:Brickwrecks: Sunken Ships in LEGO Bricks drops visitors into centuries of maritime mystery and disaster at Mystic Seaport Museum.. The internationally touring exhibition combines massive LEGO® ship recreations with real maritime history\, creating an experience that feels part museum exhibit\, part interactive adventure. As the first American stop for the exhibition\, Mystic Seaport becomes the latest host for a showcase that has previously appeared at major maritime museums in Europe and Australia. \nThe exhibit features eleven detailed LEGO® models recreating famous shipwrecks and maritime disasters spanning thousands of years\, including the Titanic\, the Vasa\, Franklin’s Arctic expedition ships Terror and Erebus\, and the ancient Uluburun trading vessel. Created in partnership with LEGO® Certified Professional Ryan “The Brickman” McNaught\, the displays combine historical storytelling with surprisingly intricate engineering and visual detail. Some models even include cross-section cutaways revealing what happened beneath the waterline. \nInteractive experiences throughout the exhibit invite visitors to test survival scenarios\, operate a remote underwater vehicle\, experiment with ship stability\, and build LEGO® creations of their own. Alongside the models are replica artifacts\, archaeological tools\, and multimedia displays exploring how modern researchers investigate shipwrecks and what those discoveries reveal about trade\, exploration\, disaster\, and human history. The result is an exhibit that works equally well for families\, history buffs\, LEGO® fans\, and anyone who still secretly wants to touch every museum display. \n
