Now, if you’re looking for opportunities to avoid cookouts and pool parties, well, we...
COVINGTON, Ky. – It is the Triple Crown of weekends: Cinco de Mayo tonight, Kentucky Derby on Saturday, and Mother’s Day on Sunday.
In other words, tacos, tequila, horses, gambling, fancy hats, bourbon, and honoring the woman you owe EVERY. WONDERFUL. THING.
So if Monday rolls around and you sat on the couch all weekend with a “Law & Order” marathon, it’s no...

COVINGTON, Ky. – A couple of events this week remind us of how things ought to be in the world.
The annual recognition of Earth Day on Friday and its accompanying events on Saturday exhort us to take better care of this one precious orb upon which we live and breathe.

There’s a cool show at The Carnegie showcasing a fine Kentuc...
COVINGTON, Ky. – This recent cold spell has given us cabin fever. If you, like us, NEED to get outside this weekend, The Cov has plenty of events to grab your interest.

COVINGTON, Ky. – We’re releasing this weekend’s narrative events calendar a day early because tomorrow is St. Patrick’s Day, and we don’t want you to miss out on all the festivities.
You might want to call in sick right now (you have a bellyache, not Covid, right?) because the celebration starts bright and early – as in breakfast-time – and to put a new...
COVINGTON, Ky. – At first blush, those two topics might seem incongruent. One evokes coziness and comfort while the other spurs a watch-where-you-step shudder. But read on. Each plays a role in this weekend’s list of fun and entertainment in The Cov.
