Huntsville Restaurant Week
@ various restaurants across Madison County, August 16-25
It’s the first (or second) week of school and it’s Huntsville Restaurant Week! What better reason to eat out? Huntsville’s Restaurant Week may not be just a weekend event (nor is it a “week”- but hey! Semantics!) but we figure you’ll love a great, local meal at a great price. Savor the cuisine of Sweet Home Huntsville, Alabama with specially priced meals featured at restaurants during this Year of Alabama Food special event.

City Lights and Stars Concert with Doyle Dykes
@ Burritt on the Mountain, Friday 7:30-9:30pm
“Doyle is one of the finest finger-picking guitarists around.” And, once you hear Doyle Dykes live in concert you will see what the late Chet Atkins was talking about. This will be a perfect season finale to close the 20th anniversary season with this phenomenal performer. Although influenced by a wide variety of musical styles and musicians from the country of Chet Atkins to the rock and roll of Duane Eddy and the Beatles, Doyle has developed a distinct, recognizable sound that amazes audiences with skill while capturing hearts with sincerity and soul.
