July’s Uptown Fest Summer Schedule (Brew Week, Boogie, and More)
Uptown Athens is packed with events throughout the year, but the summer months bring several special activities.
July and August, in fact, feature some of the most popular events of the year in Athens. All of the events are close to the Athens Ohio apartments and offer different activities. And if you have an affordable Athens rent through University rentals, you’ll be have money left over for summer fun.
One of the biggest events is Ohio Brew Week. This year, the week is July 12-20.
Brew Week brings in beer lovers from around Ohio and the surrounding region. A nine-day festival of brewing and fermenting, Ohio Brew Week has become extremely popular. It’s a great week to sample new beers, listen to live music, talk with brewers and make new friends. Each day is packed with events, all close to the student rentals offered by University Rentals.
Boogie on the Bricks in Uptown Athens
Another big summer event is the annual Boogie on the Bricks Celebration. This free community music and arts festival is on the bricks of Court Street in Uptown Athens. This year’s event will be on Aug. 10, 2019, and will feature two live music stages in Uptown Athens.
Each year, people come together to enjoy great food, music and special activities at Boogie on the Bricks.
If you are renting one of the Athens Ohio apartments, you should learn about the great events held in town.
Most people know about the events during the school year such as Homecoming, Halloween and Fest Season. And you may also know about fun activities such as sporting events, plays and concerts throughout the year.
While most of the students are gone for the summer, though, Athens also has plenty of fun activities. In fact, the city boasts a wide range of outstanding events that bring in people from around the region.
Athens in the summer is very different from Athens in the school year. The one constant, though, is that Athens is always a fun place to live.
A few of the other big summer events in Athens include the following:
- Athens Restaurant Week, which is July 26 – Aug. 2.
- Bounty on the Bricks, which is on Aug. 3. This charity event features a delicious dinner on the bricks of Court Street.
- Special movie events throughout the summer.
- Even parades, such as the July 4 parade through Uptown Athens.
- And every August, the Athens County Fair takes place on West Union Street, not far from Uptown Athens.
