Football, Valentine’s Day, hockey—it’s about to be a busy couple of days and the fun kicks off in Cary this weekend… I know, I know, we usually try to stick to the Raleigh area but this is worth the drive. Without further ado, put your party pants on and open your Uber app—it’s time for your Friday Five!
But First… Whose House? Row House!
Our fave local real estate agents, Ryan Boone and Annie Meadows of Hudson Residential, are treating one lucky Raleigh Weekend winner to two one-month unlimited passes at Row House at Midtown East. That’s a value well over $200 for each pass!
It’s Open!!!
Yes, we are just saying “it” because Sports & Social in Cary has really been the talk of the town this week. They celebrated their grand opening on Thursday, February 9, and they have fun events planned for the whole weekend. Morgan Evans will be performing on Friday, there is a UFC Watch Party on Saturday, and, of course, they are your big game headquarters on Sunday!
Need a Last-Minute V-Day Plan? Fall in Love at Residence Inn 💕
What’s better than a relaxing staycation for Valentine’s Day? Book Residence Inn Raleigh Downtown’s Valentine’s Day Package for just $289. The package includes a stay in their Studio Suite, Champagne, chocolate-covered strawberries, and $50 credit to 10th & Terrace or The Overlook—available any night Feb. 10–15.
Celebrate Valentine’s Day on Saturday
Instead of fighting the crowds on Tuesday, Feb. 14, make a reservation at Plates this Saturday, Feb. 11. They are offering an $89 prix fixe menu and you can add a premium wine flight pairing for just $25. Cheers, to love!
The Bars Battled It Out and the Winners Are In
While we are gearing up for the Super Bowl this year, the bars have already had their competition and the winners have been announced! See where and what to drink for every thirst, occasion, or no reason at all at RaleighMag.com.
Puck Yeah!
In case, somehow, you have not heard, on Saturday, Feb. 18, the Carolina Hurricanes will take on the Washington Capitals in the Navy Federal Credit Union Stadium Series contest at NC State’s Carter-Finley Stadium. The game marks the first time the Canes will host or partake in an outdoor contest. Don’t worry if you are not able to snag tickets to the big game, there are events starting on Wednesday, Feb. 15, and running until days after the Saturday night game.
Friday Five: Cheers to February!
Happy February, y’all! We’re now in the shortest month of the year—so you better make the most of it. And for those who were participating, Dry January is finally (!) over. We also have the winner of our Triangle Food Passport Giveaway, Brenda B. Congrats! Now, kick off the new month with a variety of events going on around Raleigh. No matter what you’re into, there’s something for everyone in this week’s Friday Five!
