From the editor

Hey, y’all. Dylan here. We’re sad to see NASHweekend go for now, but there’s still plenty of fun to be had every weekend in Music City — and this one is no exception. I’m personally looking forward to this Vintage Market on Saturday.

We won’t see you at 12 p.m. next Thursday, but you can still learn about all the weekend happenings in our daily newsletter and on our events page.

If a flourishing food scene, thriving arts community, and family-friendly fun appeal to you, read on to see why Brimingham — aka the Magic City — should be on your roadtrip radar.

Plan Ahead: Visit during the spring to experience the Magic City Art Connection, the city’s largest outdoor arts festival. The event takes over Sloss Furnaces, a former iron production facility and now a National Historic Landmark.
Food: Birmingham is a foodie’s paradise, having earned the nickname “Dinner Table of the South.” Save the dates (Sept. 19-22, 2024) for the FOOD+Culture Festival — it was a hit in its inaugural year.
Arts: Besides the free Birmingham Museum of Art, watch an indie film at the Sidewalk Film Center and Cinema or enjoy a production at the Alys Stephens Center.
Vrbo: This downtown loft is located in the heart of Magic City. (~$108/night)
