Get ready for an exciting September at John F. Wolfe Columbus Commons! Every Thursday evening, from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., the park transforms into a vibrant hub of activity with Brews in the Bosque. Whether you’re a craft beer aficionado, a game enthusiast, or simply looking for a relaxing evening outdoors, this event has something for everyone in the family, even your furry friends.
Sip on ice-cold, popular craft beers from Wolf’s Ridge Brewing, including their signature brews. For those seeking something different, a refreshing Commons Cocktail, crafted with Middle West Spirits OYO Stone Fruit Vodka, will also be available. Enjoy your drinks in the unique backyard-meets-beer-garden atmosphere, complete with lively tunes and a welcoming vibe. You’ll find all the fun happening on the patio near the Carousel, in the southern part of the park.
This year introduces a fantastic new partnership with Beers and Board Games. From 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. each Thursday, they will host engaging tabletop games, perfect for both seasoned gamers and newcomers to the hobby. It’s a great opportunity to socialize, learn a new game, and have some laughs.
Adding to the excitement, Go Kickball will be organizing a Cornhole Tournament. If you’re feeling competitive, you can register for the tournament here and show off your skills. But the fun isn’t limited to just games and drinks. Bring the whole family to enjoy free activities like cornhole tossing, parachute play, building with blue blocks, and even a ride on the carousel. Dogs are welcome too, just remember to keep them leashed.
As the sun begins to set, the entertainment at John F. Wolfe Columbus Commons continues with the Sunset Movie Series. Presented in partnership with CAPA and Downtown Columbus, Inc., this free outdoor movie series offers a delightful way to unwind after Brews in the Bosque. Starting each Thursday in September at 8 p.m. (or dusk), settle in under the stars and city skyline to enjoy classic films.
Bring your blankets, grab another drink from the bar, and enjoy a laid-back movie night. The FREE SUNSET MOVIE SERIES, in partnership with CAPA, features a fantastic lineup:
