Suffice to say that t...
COVINGTON, Ky. - Saturday in particular presents some tough choices in #LovetheCov this weekend.
Not whether to stay home or go out (that's an easy one) but where to go?
The fantastic DevouGrass ... or the Farmer's Market ... or some arts classes for personal fulfillment ... or a poignant reading by the amazing Richard Taylor?
Later that evening, do you wat...
COVINGTON, Ky. - Come Monday, a lot of people are going to be really tired.
From street music to street hockey to underground street art, there’s something for everyone in LoveTheCov this weekend.

COVINGTON, Ky. - We sound like a broken record (side note: that image and saying need to be updated to reflect today’s world of modern technology), but we continue to be amazed at the sheer number of things to do each weekend in #LoveTheCov.
In fact, we’d have to hire a part-timer to work every Thursday putting together this list, were we determined to list every opportunity for...
COVINGTON, Ky. - Sure, you knew about Oktoberfest and the Covington Farmers Market, but did you know that in Covington this weekend you could watch roller derby, attend a tattoo convention, and see a movie in a cemetery?

Who knows what the skies will ...
COVINGTON, Ky. - The riverfront will explode with thundering booms and an aerial spectacle this weekend, with the annual Western & Southern/WEBN Fireworks and Riverfest.

COVINGTON, Ky. - If you like listening to a band while you sip, there are plenty of places to do that in #LovTheCov this weekend, with concerts downtown, in MainStrasse Village and in.

And, as usual, get your fresh vegetables and dozens of other things a...
Yoga during the 2017 Covington Outdoors Weekend.
COVINGTON, Ky. - Are you a hard-core exercise enthusiast who aspires to be on American Ninja Warrior, or does your notion of outdoor activity consist of sitting in a lawn chair and listening to cellists and woodwinds?
Would you rather paddle or pedal?
Do you have two legs or four?
No matter - wherever you fall on the outdoor...
