Greensboro’s Got It
Highlighting 3 special events this week:
National Trails Day FREE
Greensboro parks are the best! No surprise we participate in this nationwide trails event. Head to Country Park on Saturday morning for activities for all ages, giveaways, and outdoor community.
Sumo Competition
They’re calling this the Gate City Clash! It’s part of the BodyArmor State Games and taking place downtown near Natty Greene’s on Saturday. You going to watch or going to wrestle?! Think it’s free to spectate, but there is a fee to clash.
World Promenade FREE
On Sunday afternoon, Greensboro Beautiful will host the 2nd annual World Promenade at Bicentennial Park. It’s an international festival celebrating street food, artisans, vendors, singers, and performers from all continents. Highly recommend!
