Welcome to the weekend! Last chance for Fun Um Glacis, get your grape on in Grevenmacher, join commune festivals or get your kids to a reading corner. The choice is yours.

1. Have Fun um Glacis

What:funfair, rides, food, all the good stuffWhere:Glacis, 1628LuxembourgWhen:until Sunday 12.09.21, infohere

While this isdefinitely notanewattraction, residents might be convinced to go this yearsSchueberfouerstand-in as it draws to a close.With a decentselection of rides this writer did NOT expect to be shook by the 80m carousel but shook she was as well as food and restaurants, the smaller Fun Um Glacis still gives offSchueberfouervibes, without the extreme crowding, which isactually quitenice.However, if you are going for a meal, I would recommend either booking a table or going outside busy hours as waiting times can get quite long.

What:Wine Festival Where:Place dumarch, 6755Grevenmacher When:Friday 10.09.21 Sunday 12.09.21, infohere

Although this might sound like a not safe for kids event, theGrevenmacherDrauwen- anWinfest promises much more than justoozyboozy hedonism. The town on the banks of the Moselle also boasts music, a processiondipped in folklore, andlast but not least,their very own Wine Queen, who will be joined by both princesses and Bacchus himself. Go for the wine, stay for the scenery,the atmosphere, the traditionalflairand the people. AndperhapstheCrmant.

3. Consumethe culinary traditions of China visually

What:Art Exhibition Where:Concept-store Jacques Schneider, Centre commercial Cloche dOr When:09.09.21 30.09.21, infohere

Okay, sowhileI agree it would be amazing to have a free feast at our disposal, this is unfortunately not possible(at leastat this point in time). In the absence thereof,we have the next best thing:Luxembourg Universitys Confucius Institute has organised a visual journey through the rich culinary traditions of Chinas many and multifarious regions. Througha combination ofcolours,cartoonsand spices,3 artiststickle the senses,illustratelocal delicacies and unearth the cultural meaning of food.

4. Watch Julia play

Brazilianauhor, theatre directorand film makerChristianeJatahypartners up with PassagesTransfestivals2021in a play that revolves around the interplay betweenpolitics, love,powerand domination in modern-day Brazil. In the spirit of the festival,Jatahyputs together a piece that spans artistic disciplines, combining theatre and cinema in a personal interpretation of Swedish author August Strindbergs 1888 textMiss Julia.

5. Explorecommune festivals across the Grand Duchy

What:Music, art,theatreand street performances Where:Ettelbrck, Strassen orPtange When:11.09.21 from2pm onwards, seehereorhere

Ever wondered what Brooklyn andEttelbrckhave in common? Turns out its not just a tenuous portmanteau (just kidding, I love it) but also a passion for arts, crafts, and performance. Immerse yourself in food, fun,toysand trinkets, and be transported to citiesfar beyond the reaches of the Grand Duchy.(Although I have never been to Brooklyn and thus cannot confirm the similarity between thesetwo in particular, Iam convincedthe resemblance is uncanny!)

Another American themed event will be happening inPtangeacross 3 days, with Swing, Rockabilly and Country & Blues music and other festivities. Infohere.

For something a little closer to the city centre, try theStroossefestival!Inits10thedition, you can check it outhereor on Facebook.

Whoever says Luxembourg has little to offer is sorely mistaken.
