Summer is one of the most enjoyable times of the year, assuming that you know how to pass the time and ignore the hotter weather. Swimming pools, picnics, and weekend road and beach trips are all great ideas, but sometimes we’re looking for something a little different - whether it be more exciting, closer to home, or just cheaper.
With this in mind, we’ve put together this list of things you
can do during the summer of 2013:
●
June, July and August see a great number of special
events here. From Festival Flamenco International de Alburquerque to comic
expos to the Route 66 Summerfest, there’s something here for everyone. More
information about all of these events can be found here, but to help you out, here’s a quick list
of special summer events and the dates they’ll be up and running:

Go to a concert. From acoustic artists to pop stars

down. You can review concert dates and times here.
●
Ball game, anyone? You can always head to an Isotopes game in your free time!
●
If it’s not a game day, hit up one of the area’s
multiple museums. Anthropology. Biblical history. Rattlesnake. Turquoise. All
of these things and more have a museum dedicated to them! Don’t believe us? Here’s the full list
of nearby museums you can explore. (Feel free to visit the local zoo if you’re the type that prefers to see
some adorable living creatures rather than items in a museum.)
●
If you’re on a budget, bookmark Albuquerque on the
Cheap. They offer a number of daily promotions in addition to their
weekly freebies and half-off deals. This is a great way to explore your city
while on a budget!
