This Month in Bisbee: April

by | Bisbee Buzz

Spring is springing here in Bisbee! The skies are full of turkey vultures, butterflies, and hummingbirds. The temperature is perfect, with the average high for the month being 74°F, as we gently warm from 69°F at the start of the month to 76°F by the end. As such, there’s lots to do both indoors and outdoors all over Bisbee.

Alice in Bisbeeland

Over the weekend of April 17 – 19, one of Bisbee’s most popular events, Alice in Bisbeeland, is happening. AIB is an all-town cosplay, where everyone dresses up like characters from the beloved Lewis Carroll novels. There will be live music, a tea party, pub crawl, and the event culminates in the beheading of the Queen of Hearts in Brewery Gulch at 10pm!

Mile High Music Festival at Bisbee Grand

The Mile High Music Festival takes place in Bisbee every year on 4/20, and this year it’s at the Bisbee Grand. Featuring tons of local acts, this feel-good event helps kick off the springtime right. More info coming soon!

Live Music at the Bisbee Social Club

Bisbee’s hippest (literally) underground spot is the Bisbee Social Club. Located in the basement at 67 Main St., when the red light is on, the bar is open! On Fridays and Saturday nights you can expect live music from some of the finest local and touring acts in a variety of styles and genres.

Saturday afternoons, sip a signature cocktail and listen to the cool sounds of Out of the Blue, playing, blues, funk, psychedelic, and jazz 2 – 5pm.

Events Every Day of the Week

While Bisbee is the busiest on the weekends, there is something going on every day or night of the week. Monday has open mic at St. Elmo – one lucky winner gets what’s in the tip jar! Tuesday has open mic at the Hitching Post in Warren, with a rotating cast of hosts. Wednesday is Jam Night at the Bisbee Grand, sign up for a 15-minute slot or jump in during the jams – full backline as well as guitar, bass, and keyboards. And of course, every Thursday it’s Bowling for Dildos at St. Elmo – a Bisbee tradition.

April in Bisbee is heating up, the weather will be just perfect. For more detailed listings of music, art, and culture events visit www.thisweekinbisbee.com
