The Weekend Calendar April 17-19

It's a question as old as time: What should I do this weekend? In the city of Philadelphia and its surrounding areas there is so much each and every weekend. From concerts and movies, plays and museums, festivals, charity events, sports outings...the list just goes on and on. That's why during his tenure Pierre Robert came up with The Weekend Calendar.

A collective of events for you to enjoy should you find yourself in the Delaware Valley. Everything from concerts to go to (like Melissa Etheridge at the Parx Xcite Center), movies to see (Lee Cronin's The Mummy rated R), events (small and large) to partake in, and always what is going on here at WMMR.
