Date Night Just Got Better
Did you guys know that the number one keyword that lands people to this blog is "date night ideas in Newmarket." Guys - I'm beyond touched. I mean - how great is it that people are looking here for recommendations on where to take their sweetheart in this great community.
It's in that vein that this post comes to you with an ultimate double header of a date night. This is the date idea for those of you who are ready to step past just dinner, or just a walk through Fairy Lake. It's the Newmarket National Play Festival and Festilicious. This weekend of festivities taking place July 25th through 29th, 2018 is perfect for getting in a little culture, a little food and a little exploring in the downtown core.
Top 7 Reasons This Should Be Your Next Date Night
1. 6 Plays, 10 Minutes Each. $20 (pan-Canadian talent, including esteemed Fringe talent, on the cheap!)
2. Date night discounts: 10% off (and 20% off in some spots) Newmarket's amazing restaurants
3. More date night discounts: $20 Beer and Burger at Hungry Brew Hops! Have you had the HBH burger - I'd pay $20 for the burger alone.
4. Fringe Fame close to home: Mandy Roveda , director of the 2018 Fringe Patron's Pick production BikeFace is directing For the Love of Austen, Hero, Pausing at the Fringe, & Valentine's Day. And you didn't even have to get on the Go Train.
5. Local talent, international experience: Local Newmarketonians like Christopher Pattenden (Lighting and Scenic Designer), Tom McHale, (Director) and Adrienne Deeley -(Huron Heights grad and Costume and Scenic Designer) will be working behind the scenes to make the action come to light.
6. Perfect evening time whether you are an early to bed kind of person (I'll take a 7pm showing thank you very much) or you want to be able to enjoy dinner and drinks before heading to the show later on (9:15pm start).
7. Discounts on local shopping experiences all weekend long! (Can you tell I love saving money?) If you are saving money on your entertainment - why not get a new outfit for the occasion?
8. Attending live theatre is scientifically proven to make you a better person and improve your health and well-being. No gym membership required.
There you have it, enjoy the show. See below to get your tickets!
