Spring Supper Society at Glen Foerd
Locals can head to Glen Foerd’s 18-acre riverside estate this Thursday (April 9) to join in on The Spring Supper Society. Hosted from 6 to 8 p.m., guests will enjoy a Bridgerton-inspired evening celebrating the flavors of spring in the form of a five-course seasonal dinner (by The Clean Plate Club), a welcome cocktail, and additional beverages for purchase.
The party will take place either outdoors or in the historic mansion, depending on the weather. Guests are encouraged to dress in spring garden party or Regency-inspired attire. Note that tickets are $90 per person; the event is 21+ and cannot accommodate dietary restrictions. More information can be found online.

Clover Market
Some creativity is going to be sprinkled throughout Philly this spring, and lovers of hand-made finds are in luck. The Clover Market will open for the sunny season with its first iteration, set for Sunday, April 12, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in Chestnut Hill.
The Market will be held along W. Highland Avenue, starting at Germantown Avenue, and extending into the Turquoise parking lot (25 W. Highland Ave.), with support from the Chestnut Hill Business District. As a release notes, opening day attendees can enjoy food and beverages from Bonjour Creperie, Korea Taqueria, Mom Mom’s, Redstone Pizza, Mr. Big Stuff Cookie Co., and Many Hands Coffee. Live music will be provided by Wayside Shakeup from noon to 3 p.m., and there will also be face painting and free crafts for children.
4DSOUND
Felt Void, in association with FringeArts and YoungArts, will present a one-night-only immersive sound experience on April 10 at 7:30 p.m., featuring the rare 4DSOUND system—one of just six in the world. Developed by an Amsterdam-based studio known for pioneering spatial audio, 4DSOUND allows artists to create fully immersive environments using “sonic holograms,” marking its first-ever presentation in Philadelphia.
The program will feature a line-up of local artists working in spatial sound, including Benjamin Louis Brody, Yesseh Furaha-Ali, Jaleel Shaw, James Allister Sprang and Immanuel Wilkins. The event also highlights alumni of YoungArts, an organization dedicated to supporting emerging artists through funding, mentorship, and professional development. Tickets ($2 to $25) are available to the public at FringeArts’ official site.

Yards Real Ale Invitational
The Yards Real Ale Invitational returns to Yards Brewing Company this Sunday, April 12, from 12:30 to 4 p.m. This one-of-a-kind celebration of traditional cask-conditioned beer will feature more than 40 unique brews from top Mid-Atlantic breweries, plus ways to explore the working brewhouse, live music, food for purchase, and a complimentary Philly-style pretzel.
A long-running tradition since 2008, the event highlights “real ale”—unfiltered, unpasteurized beer naturally carbonated in a cask—reviving a centuries-old brewing method once common in early Philadelphia. Participating favorites include picks from Sly Fox, Cape May, and Evil Genius, with a few other surprises in between.
Tickets for the 2026 Real Ale Invitational are offered in three tiers of general admission pricing, with lower rates available to early buyers as each level sells out. A limited number of $75 VIP tickets include early entry, exclusive perks, and first access to rare, limited casks.

Boozy Tea at Aqimero
From now through April 22, chef and restaurateur Richard Sandoval has brought back Viva Abejas, which translates to “Long Live the Bees.” This annual initiative aims to foster a connection between food, the environment, and sustainability, while also raising awareness about the importance of pollinators.
So what’s on the menu? Food-wise, this year’s Viva Abejas will feature Viva Tiradito Tuna Ceviche, Beef Tenderloin, and an Abejas Pavlova, along with cocktails like the Miel de Fuego, Honeycomb Carajillo, Margarita Melipona and the Viva Abeja Paloma.
A fun way to experience it all is through the venue’s Boozy Tea Experience, set to take place Saturday, April 11 and Sunday, April 12. This tasting event is meant to be immersive for guests, with live DJ entertainment, crafted tea cocktails, and a tasting menu showcasing the many flavors of the kitchen.
