Valentine’s Day has come and gone, but there’s still plenty of great couples (and singles!) activities in town this weekend.

Mittenfest 2024

If your ideal weekend plans are generally something like “Man, I really wanna stand outside and have a couple beers” then this is the event for you. Winter clothing is encouraged, since we’re getting back down in the 20-degree region. And as you’d expect from anything at Washington Park, there will be plenty of food trucks.
$25+, 11 a.m. – 5 p.m., Saturday-Sunday, Washington Park, 1230 Elm St., Over-the-Rhine

Latin Dance Night at Rhinegeist

Promising “salsa, bachata, merengue, y mas!” tonight, this dance event at Rhinegeist will feature all sorts of dancing, all sorts of empanadas, and all sorts of beer.
9 p.m., Friday, Rhinegeist Brewery, 1910 Elm St., Over-the-Rhine

Savory Sweet Stroll at Findlay Market

Miss out on Valentine’s Day chocolates? This tasting event at Findlay Market is extra sweet, with treats from all your favorite vendors, like cayenne-cinnamon red velvet waffles at Taste of Belgium or strawberry champagne banana pudding at Makers Bakers.
$20, 10 a.m. — 4 p.m., Sunday, Findlay Market, 1801 Race St., Over-the-Rhine

Mascot Skating at Fountain Square

If you’ve ever wanted to go ice-skating with Mr. Redlegs, here’s your chance. Fountain Square’s ice skating rink (which might be going away soon, weather depending!) has all your favorite mascots, like Rosie Red, Puckchop and Gary the Lion at the ice rink this Sunday. Check Fountain Square’s website to see which mascots exactly you’ll be able to meet that day.
10 a.m. – 12 p.m., Sunday, Fountain Square, 520 Vine St., downtown

Backpacker Training with Cincy Hikes

Got plans to go backpacking someday but aren’t in the best shape to do it? Here’s your opportunity. On this three mile hike, attendees will be carrying ten pounds across a moderate trail at an intermediate pace. RSVP at the link above if you’re up for the challenge.
9 a.m.., Sunday, French Park, 3012 Section Rd., Roselawn

Dracula with Playhouse in the Park

An all-new retelling of the most famous vampire’s story has its world premiere with Playhouse in the Park. A “bold, highly theatrical” new version awaits you all this weekend at the Rouse Theatre, and stars Adam Poss as the titular vampire.
Various showtimes, Rouse Theatre, 962 Mt. Adams Circle, Mt. Adams
