Ottawa Weekend: What to Do March 14-16
Ottawa's weekend calendar is looking busy despite the freezing rain that blanketed the city mid-week. Whether you are in the mood for a cozy movie, live hockey, or getting an early start on St. Patrick's Day celebrations, there is something for every Ottawan.
Movies
Head to one of Ottawa's theatres for the latest releases. After a week of ice storms, settling into a warm seat with popcorn sounds appealing. Check the Bytowne Cinema and other local theatres for weekend programming.
Live Hockey
Ottawa Senators fans, check the schedule for weekend home games at the Canadian Tire Centre. Weekend matchups are always a good time to grab seats and enjoy a live NHL crowd.
Theatre
Ottawa's arts scene does not slow down for winter. Check listings at the National Arts Centre, the Great Canadian Theatre Company, and smaller venues across the city.
St. Patrick's Day Early Celebrations
St. Patrick's Day is March 17, but Ottawa bars and venues stretch celebrations across the weekend. Expect green-themed events and live Irish music in the ByWard Market and Centretown. Note: one event originally listed as Tuesday March 17 is confirmed for Saturday March 14 - double-check listings before heading out.
Community Bazaar
A community bazaar is on this weekend - a great chance to pick up local goods and support Ottawa vendors.
