Are you looking for things to do in Raleigh, NC this weekend? Or Durham, Chapel Hill, Cary, Wake Forest, or other places in the Triangle?
This list includes fun things to do in Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill this weekend, plus surrounding areas, from Friday to Sunday. (Or Monday if it’s a holiday weekend.)This list is updated every single week!
Weather Warning!
With severe weather, it’s likely that many events will be canceled or postponed. As we learn about specific cancellations, we update our calendar. However, please don’t assume that because an item is still on our calendar that it hasn’t been canceled. Please check with the organizer.
You’ll find a ton of things to do this weekend near you, including guided tours, festivals, live music and dance, kids’ activities, adult activities, organized hikes, seasonal activities, learning opportunities and so much more.
And don’t forget the things to do that are free all the time, like hiking trails, North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences, North Carolina Museum of Art, Yates Mill County Park and so much more.
We focus on free and cheap events, but, of course, the definition of “cheap” varies for each person. We sometimes include events that are a little pricier but are a lot of fun and a good value.

We make every effort to make sure that everything on Triangle on the Cheap is 100% accurate.
However, sometimes things change without notice, and it’s also possible that we can make a mistake.
Please verify all deals and events with the venue or organizer before you go.
