What's Happening This Weekend?

Every weekend, we're bringing you five of our top events picks from around NYC. Check back next week for more ways you can eat, drink, see, shop and play around the city!

EAT

Join a crowd of fellow foodies on a search for the best brownie in Manhattan! After joining a team, you’ll receive a route that will take you on a sampling tour of NYC’s finest sweet treats. Whether you like the middle pieces or the crispy edges, cake-like or gooey, you’ll be able to find your favorite and cast your vote to determine the day’s best brownie (or just check out our list of NYC's Best Bakeries!).

Sunday, March 28, 3 pm
Meet at Greenwich Ave & 8th Ave, Manhattan

DRINK

Join Lacey Rozinsky, sommelier at The Four Seasons, at a private wine class and tasting. Learn about wine from one of the city's experts and sample a few different tastes from regions across the globe on the cheap! Space is limited, so sign up early!

Sunday, March 28, 6pm
751 President Street #4, Brooklyn

SEE

If you were the type of kid who would rather play with LEGO sets than set foot in a museum, you’re in luck. Nathan Sawaya’s art is entirely constructed in LEGO bricks. From small recreations of favorite desserts to life-size self portraits, he puts our old LEGO castles to shame.

Saturday, March 27, 11 am – 6 pm
530 W 25th St, Manhattan

SHOP

Get your closet ready for spring with Built By Wendy’s sample sale: 70% off everything in the store. The summer dress and the classic cardigan sweater are the standouts at this store, a must for the wannabe quirky librarians in all of us.

Saturday and Sunday, March 27-28.
46 N. 6th St, Brooklyn

PLAY

Get your kicks at Coney Island this weekend: the Cyclone is reopening for business. The classic landmark roller coaster is offering free rides to the first 100 people to stand in line for some bone-shaking, old-timey fun. Our word to the wise: have your hot dogs afterward.

834 Surf Ave, Brooklyn
Sunday, March 28, opens at noon; $8 after the first 100 riders
