Get Out: Five Ideas For Your Weekend

Love is a battlefield this weekend.

Powerful music rocks the desert this weekend with a performance from the legendary Pat Benatar, a free Desert Winds Freedom Band show and a concert featuring the hits that made Judy Garland a star. Did you get tickets to Bruno Mars before they sold out? We hope so. If not, no worries, there is plenty going on this weekend to keep you smiling.

 Our goal is to make the Get Out planner as reliable as possible, but keep in mind, some events change at the last minute. We advise calling ahead just in case.
