COVINGTON, Ky. – There is no excuse to sit home bored this weekend because it’s packed with options.
(Seriously, in well over three years of compiling this narrative weekend events feature, we’ve never seen so many compelling events.)
First, there’s food (the first Taste the Cov event AND the Taste of Latonia AND the Summer of Cov Night Bazaar), th...
COVINGTON, Ky. – Lederhosen will be de rigueur this weekend in MainStrasse Village while, over on the other side of town, our favorite farm girl from Kansas gets caught up in something much bigger than a twister, and there’s a bunch of singing and dancing about it.
But if you don’t like to quaff and scarecrows are too scary, there’s plenty of other options this...
COVINGTON, Ky. – You’ve got a three-day weekend to fill, and there’s no need to leave The Cov to fill it.
Kick your heels to fine tunes (boy bands and others). Eat Smokin’ BBQ on the river. Do the art thing at Baker Hunt or The Carnegie. Check out some, er, interesting shops. Or strategize your Sunday evening to navigate your way to the river’s edge for a...

Get ready for a scorching merengue
… on the dance f...
COVINGTON, Ky. – There’s so much to do in The Cov this weekend that we’ve decided that the weekend must officially begin tonight. (Well, maybe not officially, but deep down, we know it’s true.)
Hot sounds of summer
It’s August. It’s hot.
But hotter than the Hot Magnolias? Likely not.
Catch the New Orleans-style sounds of this Cincinnati-ba...
COVINGTON, Ky. – Lots to do in The Cov this weekend, starting tonight.
The Bard, jazz tonight!
Yeah, this is the #Weekend piece. But we’re breaking our own rules because we just can’t ignore the The Cov-sponsored fun to be had tonight in Devou Park.
