One of the greatest aspects of St. Augustine, Florida is all of the fun activities that are available. Uptown Saturday Night is a great event to visit and participate in for locals and tourists. Therefore, one does not have to be a resident of Florida to enjoy all that Uptown Saturday Night has to offer. That is one factor that makes this event very interesting. Uptown Saturday Night occurs at the end of the month from 5pm to 9pm. Since the holidays are coming up, I am excited about the St. Augustine shopping extravaganza.
Uptown Saturday Night features a blend of live music, book signings, art exhibits and more. There is also a chance to shop at nearby antique stores and other unique shops. This event is like a shopping spree and party all rolled into one. One of the best aspects that I like about Uptown Saturday Night is that visitors can enjoy FREE refreshments and live music while shopping in a fun atmoshphere. This takes a lot of frustation out of the typical shopping experience by adding more fun and relaxation to the mix. You can even meet the artists who have work displayed during Uptown Saturday Night. I also love the fact that there is FREE parking available thanks to The Mission of Nombre de Dios.
It is not always easy to find unique gifts for the Holidays. The shopping experience is tiresome, which is why Uptown Saturday Night is a great place to be. It provides the opportunity to find unique gifts that no one else has and enjoy yourself in the process. Since I like art and music, Uptown Saturday Night is definitely a must-see and must-visit event. I can enjoy the local activities and performances while shopping for special gifts for the Holidays. The added refreshments also means that I do not have to spend time searching for someting to eat. From a filmmaking perspective, Uptown Saturday Night is also a great event where one could make a cool video documentary about the local artists, visitors and history of the event.
