Father's Day is just around the corner, and there are plenty of local events to celebrate the occasion. One great option is to take your dad to a local brewery or winery that is hosting a Father's Day event. Many of these establishments offer special tastings or discounts for dads, and some even have live music or food trucks on site. This can be a great way to spend quality time with your dad while enjoying some delicious drinks and entertainment.

You and your dad can spend the day admiring classic cars, watching races, or even taking a ride in a high-performance vehicle. Whatever your dad's interests may be, there is sure to be a local event that will make his Father's Day one to remember.

Cider Gallery (810 Pennsylvania Street in Lawrence) will be hosting live music. Doors open at 4:30, Sky Smeed starts at 5 and Signal Ridge starts at 6:30. Tickets are $10 but kids are free!
