 If you’re in Portland, Maine this week, get ready for a lineup packed with coastal charm, local flavor, and creative energy. Tonight and every Monday means Music Bingo at Foundation Brewing from 6 to 8 pm, pairing trivia with craft beer in a relaxed taproom setting. For listeners with a competitive streak, Portland’s trivia scene is thriving: Foundation Brewing hosts classic trivia Wednesdays at 6 pm, and there’s always something brewing on the waterfront with trivia nights at local favorites all week long, according to Visit Portland’s event calendar.

For those seeking art and culture, Portland’s downtown buzzes every night with vibrant live performances, gallery walks, and neighborhood events. The city’s unique mix of venues brings everything from major concerts to quirky open mics and pop-up exhibits—Portland Downtown notes that there’s always music and art lighting up the streets. If you’re drawn to history, don’t miss guided city tours and a behind-the-scenes look at the legendary Kotzschmar Organ, complete with a live demo.

If you’re looking for something deliciously Maine, learn to shuck fresh oysters with local farmers at one of the interactive tasting tours, or embark on a Classic Maine Food and History Tour where you can sample lobster rolls and chowder while uncovering Portland’s maritime roots. According to Visit Portland, oyster tastings and food tours are happening throughout the week, especially leading into the weekend.

And for a fun twist, Portland’s famous Drag Brunch takes over the last Sunday of every month, proving that brunch is way more fun with a side of sequins and sass. Drag Music Bingo on Tuesday nights combines performances with all the fun of bingo in a truly Portland way.

Family-friendly events are everywhere, from interactive workshops to the Maine Children’s Alliance First Annual Golf Tournament happening today. On Saturday, lace up for the Trail to Ale 10K or join the Bayside Ride; both wind through scenic routes and finish with a block party on Diamond Street, featuring live music, food trucks, craft cider, and local spirits, as highlighted by Maine Public’s community calendar.

If you have art on your mind, check out the photography exhibit by Vincente Spadafora nearby in Rockport before it wraps up this week—perfect for a coastal day trip.

And, of course, there’s plenty to explore at Portland’s historic waterfront, with cobblestone streets, fresh seafood shacks, quaint shops, and harbor cruises happening daily. Don’t forget about the Portland Sea Dogs at Hadlock Field for classic minor league baseball fun under the summer sky.
