We know it's the full moon this weekend, so we've provided some awesome events to channel your lycanthropic urges. Instead of chasing down neighborhood cats in the dead of night, stop by one of the lunar celebrations for a mystical mood. Or, if live music is more your vibe, let your inner dance beast out at one of the lively cumbia festivals we've got lined up for you! Either way, we're sure you'll find something in this lineup that'll make you howl.
Remember every Friday we'll post our picks for the weekend and please check this space often as we may update it with changes and/or new events that pop up. Enjoy!
