Slide into summer—that’s what this weekend is going to feel like. Wheeeeeee. The foodies and music lovers are going to go crazy-go-nuts over this one.
220s at The Speakeasy
Friday, May 15 — Rockland
The 220s have really made a name for themselves in Maine and this spring and summer they are booked every weekend. The group has developed a cult following for unforgettable live shows full of tasty improvisational jams, and fine-tuned musicianship, while making sure no two performances are alike. So catch this this progressive rock trio as soon as you can. Give them a listen: The 220s. 8:30-11:30 p.m., $3 cover.
Belfast’s Monster Music Festival

If you don’t make it to the Three Tides after-party, then slide south because this party is going to be right up your alley. DJ Quantum will spin some fresh and funky tunes from 7:30 to 10:30 p.m. They’ll also have appetizers, cash bar and a silent auction on hand.

Killer Road Trip: Taste of Bar Harbor
Thursday, May 14 — Sunday, May 17
From Dessert Night to a Pub Tour to their most prestigious event, Chef’s Table (in which each chef will prepare and serve a special five-course private dinner for each table, highlighting their particular cuisine and pairing it with fine wines) this is a jam-packed weekend for foodies. And it’s supposed to be gorgeous this weekend. For $20.15 (no, that’s not a typo), you can also get special menus and tastings all over Bar Harbor that weekend too. Honestly Rockland, we should be doing our own version of this! Check out their schedule.
