Starry Nights

Chill fest

It’s an all-day-into-night affair to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Veritas Vineyards and Winery. Starry Nights returns with live music, fun food, and plenty of wine. Tunes start with AbbeyRoad covering classics from The Beatles before Marie and Koda of Chamomile and Whiskey take the stage, then ’80s enthusiasts The Legwarmers close the show. Bring your own picnic, snag a snack from Ma’s Pizza Cones or Cousins Maine Lobster food trucks, or enjoy a stationed meal (if you opt for the Moon Experience ticket).

Saturday 8/10. $15–75, 11am-11pm. Veritas Vineyards and Winery, 151 Veritas Ln., Afton. veritaswines.com

Free news is good news!

Nearly $1 million a year goes into the work you’re reading—covering local government, spotlighting the arts, and telling the stories no one else does. If you value that, help fund it for $10 a month (or whatever tax-deductible gift you can afford). Save the free word.
