Have Friends Visiting Memorial Day Weekend? Show Them the Best of Boise with These Tips
With Memorial Day coming up, you’re probably more than ready to enjoy a
much-needed three-day weekend full of fun, family, and friends. If you
have friends or family coming into town, why not give them an experience
in Boise they won’t soon forget?
Whether it’s Memorial Day weekend or any time this summer, here are some things to do and show them so they can see the best of Boise (and maybe you could convince them to move here too).
A Treat for the Eyes and Ears
Along with restaurants lining restaurant row on 8th street, Boise offers treats for your other senses with historic and contemporary architecture and a bustling music scene of local and touring acts playing nightly throughout the city.
To start with the sights, you can't go wrong with the Idaho State Capitol Building up North Capitol Boulevard. Built in the early 1900s, the Idaho State Capitol Building is a must-see for anyone visiting the city or anyone who is a fan of historic architecture. Besides the Capitol Building, if you want to wow your guests with some newer Boise buildings, you should take them by Jack's Urban Meeting Place or JUMP as the locals call it.
Along with treating your eyes, treat your ears to the best live music Boise has to offer at any of the local venues. If you're in the mood for a big-name act, then you'll head to the Taco Bell Arena or the Knitting Factory. For local bands and some smaller names, then any of the downtown venues will be the spot. Boise's music scene is so strong that you can even enjoy live jazz at Chandlers in downtown and enjoy world-class performances at the restaurant on a nightly basis.
Shop ‘Till You Drop
Are your guests in need of some retail therapy? They’re in luck as the downtown Boise area alone features countless shops, boutiques, and markets for them to purchase local goods they can’t get anywhere else, among other things.
On Saturdays during the spring and summer season, you can wander the streets of downtown for the Capital City Public Market or head over to the Boise Farmers Market for fresh produce and other local selections. Stores like the Record Exchange and local shops downtown are great places to pick up souvenirs or a funky shirt.
Dine at One of Boise’s Best
Whether you're stopping in for a quick bite or spending the evening enjoying multiple courses, downtown Boise is home to dozens of local restaurants sure to please your guests. From the Boise Fry Company showcasing Idaho's famous potatoes to Chandlers, perhaps the best steakhouse Boise offers, you can’t go wrong with any of them. Check out Chandlers’ menu ahead of time and savora delicious meal to cap off the day.
