As the weather warms up, get outside and hop from festival to festival this weekend. You can celebrate big with events honoring Shakespeare’s birthday and Earth Day.

Friday

Earth Day Festival

Although Earth Day is officially Sunday, it’s never too early get in an eco-friendly mindset. Celebrate the holiday early at this festival by planting yourself in the three-acre outdoor National Garden at the U.S. Botanical Garden surrounded by water lilies, roses, butterflies and greenery. Enjoy hands-on activities like crafting seed necklaces or engage in conversation with representatives from regional environmental organizations as they teach you how to do your part in preserving the Earth. After you enjoy the festivities, head inside the conservatory for a tour or check out the rotating exhibit “Wall Flowers: Botanical Murals,” which features large scale botanical art.

D.C. Beer Festival

Fill your afternoon with craft brews in tiny clear mugs at the annual D.C. Beer Festival. Now in its sixth year, the festival showcases 80 regional craft breweries and more than 200 seasonal beers. After a few brews, you’ll be more likely to dance and sing to the live music that will play throughout the day, including the ’90s cover band, Make More Animals, Bobby McKey’s dueling pianos and multiple DJ sets. Though you can’t play baseball at Nationals Park, there will be opportunities to show off your lawn game skills.
