Baltimore is buzzing with energy this week, and there is no shortage of unforgettable experiences to enjoy around town. Today, July third, listeners can kick off the evening at Hopkins Plaza where Jazzy Summer Nights is hosting one of its final seasons, transforming the plaza into an open-air party of jazz, soul, community, and food trucks. The legendary Raheem DeVaughn headlines tonight, from five to ten, so grab your friends and make it an evening of smooth tunes and summertime vibes, as highlighted by Baltimore Fishbowl. If you prefer something more lively, check out the Star Spangled Spectacular at Oregon Ridge Park this evening at eight, where the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra will cap their outdoor performance with a dazzling fireworks finale.

Looking ahead, Friday marks Independence Day, and Baltimore knows how to celebrate. At the Inner Harbor, the festivities ramp up at six at the Amphitheater with live music from Avenue 66 at seven, followed by the main fireworks display launching over the waterfront promenade at nine. According to Visit Baltimore, transportation will be easy with options including Light Rail, bus, and the Charm City Circulator, but expect limited parking and heavier traffic, so consider public transit if you can.

July fourth also brings the Cherry Hill Arts and Music Waterfront Festival at Middle Branch Park from one to ten. This annual tradition is all about arts, music, and unity, bringing together communities from all over the city for a front-row seat to the city’s fireworks display and a spectacular drone show starting at nine thirty. Performing live is the soulful Navasha Daya, and the festival features arts and crafts, a children’s village, and historical reenactments.

For those seeking a family-friendly day, the Maryland Zoo is hosting Red, White, and Zoo all day where animals will be treated to special themed treats. Feeling competitive? The Cross Street Market hot dog eating contest starts at ten thirty in the morning, with a cool grand prize for the winner.

This weekend, there’s more to explore. Saturday’s highlight is the Baltimore Dragon Boat Challenge along the waterfront, where dragon boat teams race in a high-energy, family-friendly atmosphere. Young listeners can join Boards and Breakfast at Jake’s Skatepark, a free morning event where local pro-skaters help kids learn to ride. Saturday night, Power Plant Live hosts Friday Night Live with The Cover Up Band playing classic hits—perfect for dancing into the summer night. If jazz is more your thing, the Donald Harrison Quartet brings their legendary sound to Keystone Korner.

For listeners looking to get out on the water, Watermark Cruises is offering special extended sightseeing and fireworks cruises all weekend long, with the best harbor views around. And for those feeling adventurous, the Light Up The Night Full Moon Paddle lets experienced paddlers enjoy a glowing night on the Inner Harbor.
