About Meridian
Meridian is the busiest event city in the Treasure Valley and arguably the best place in Idaho to spend a weekend with kids. Settlers Park hosts free outdoor concerts in the summer, the Meridian Main Street Market wraps the season into fall, and the Meridian Library District runs one of the most active program calendars in the state. The city's parks network -- Kleiner, Settlers, Storey -- gives you somewhere to be every Saturday from May through October.
What's Up Meridian collects the calendar in one place: free family events, brewery nights, food trucks, kids' programs, weekend markets. Subscribe to the Friday email and you'll never miss a weekend.
