We usually go to folk fest on Saturday or Sunday but it's looking like we will only be able to go Friday this year. Does anyone know if the food vendors are open Friday night and what time they usually open? It's not clear on the website.

Also what's the early Friday night vibe? Kid appropriate?

Thanks!

I don't mind leaving my bike at the train stations it's more of Id like the peace in mind I'm 17.

Hey everyone - I'm moving to Lowell from Somerville and was looking at Back Central & South Lowell on Lawrence street. How's the area? I see some mixed opinions on the areas in Lowell so figured I'd ask myself. Thanks!

Title says it all but if you're interested or know anybody who is interested let's link. I'm just moving into the area so would love the opprotunity to meet new clients!

Attatched is the most recent thing I've recorded!

Has anyone taken a road test or know someone who has taken one recently? Curious how long it is, what kind of maneuvers they ask you to perform, and what the route you took approximately. Any another thoughts and input would be appreciated thanks!

I just moved here about eight months ago and tried to register to vote online, but the State website keeps on telling me that my MA drivers license number isn't valid (it is), and I haven't seen any updates on my registration status after mailing in my application in about three months ago.

Is there a physical location I can go to to make sure that I'm registered to vote? I tried calling and was stuck on hold for over two hours, but I use my phone for work so I can't just endlessly sit on hold every day

Looking for someone to install a new dryer vent ( through the wall, not hooking up dryer to the vent). Any recommendations? I called Fagundes & they don't do this & I'm not finding other companies like them do it either. I see some chimney sweeps apparently do it, just wondering if anyone has a good recommendation. Thanks!

i vividly remember seeing these dudes on the side of the road screaming and saying that white people are the devil. i haven’t seen them in years. are they in a new spot or what happened?

My partner's disabled sister is about to be homeless and my life is going to blow up if I can't solve this. If anyone can take her as a roomate even for a few months it would help buy us time to figure out a more permanent solution.

Does anyone know if the street spots on Jackson St are $20 during Folk Fest? I know that they up charge most parking spots around Downtown that weekend but I forget where that ends. My SIL wants to come up with the kids but i’m not trying to make her pay $20 lol

Hoping I’m wrong about what I think I just drove past…the bridge was being shut down and lots of first responders showing up. 😩

Hey, hey!

I’m a curbside Bootstrap customer since they took over OffBeet’s customers years ago.

I just received a(n e)mailer about a Worcester bring-your-own drop off in the works and was surprised to read they already offer this service in Lowell at the DPW!

It’s a lot cheaper than curbside pickup at $12.50 a month.

Hey folks, it’s your friend Ren Marquez.
The city is winding up for the folk festival
and we are winding up for Joke House tonight
at Smokehouse Tavern.
Come watch comics from all over work out their 5 minute sets, preferably with a drink in hand.
Tonight at 8pm

I haven't made one of these in a while. Somebody brought it up Sunday and said that they liked it when I showed shortcuts and alleys. Are there any favorites of those I should work in if I make a new one?

Here's an older video for reference:

Anyone know pickleball courts around Lowell or neighboring towns? Outdoor or indoor? With or without light? Free or paid?

Edit: Thank you to everyone for the suggestions

Hello! I am looking for a good place to do my car detail, in and out, right down to the q-tip. I live in an apartment so I don't have water access at my home but would have room for a mobile service. TIA!

I seen sign downtown for a new burger spot, does anyone know when it opens? I think it’s called on the bun
