4 Things to Do in Clarksville This Weekend (June 27–28)
Summer is in full swing in Clarksville, and this weekend gives you plenty of reasons to get out and enjoy it.

MoCo Movie Nights: How to Train Your Dragon
Montgomery County Parks and Recreation is rolling out the big screen for a free outdoor showing of “How to Train Your Dragon” on Saturday, June 27 at 7:30 p.m. at Downtown Commons, 215 Legion St. Bring your lawn chairs and blankets, grab a spot on the lawn, and settle in for a family favorite. Food will be available for purchase.

Bulls, Booms & Burgers
If you want a little more adrenaline, “Bulls, Booms & Burgers” brings professional bull riding to 1680 Parchman Road on Saturday, June 27. Gates open at 5 p.m. and the action starts at 7:30 p.m., with riders and bulls from across the country chasing the eight-second buzzer, plus freestyle bullfights. Stick around afterward for a live after-party concert from The Ballistic Pintos.

Nunsense at the Roxy Regional Theatre
The Roxy Regional Theatre closes out its 43rd season with the musical comedy “Nunsense,” and this is your last weekend to catch it. Performances run Saturday, June 27 at 7 p.m. and a Sunday, June 28 matinee at 2 p.m. While the Clarksville Performing Arts Center is under construction, the Roxy is performing at its temporary home at 114 Public Square in historic downtown.

Nashville Kats Arena Football
Catch fast-paced indoor football downtown when the Nashville Kats host the Beaumont Renegades at F&M Bank Arena on Saturday, June 27 at 4 p.m. It is a high-energy, air-conditioned afternoon out — a great option if the summer heat has you looking for something indoors.
When: Saturday, June 27, 4 p.m. · Where: F&M Bank Arena, downtown Clarksville · Cost: Tickets vary; check the arena box office or Ticketmaster
A Realtor’s Take: Live Where the Fun Is
Notice how much of this weekend’s lineup centers on downtown Clarksville — Downtown Commons, the Roxy on Public Square, and F&M Bank Arena are all within a few blocks of each other. That walkability is exactly why downtown and the historic neighborhoods nearby keep drawing buyers who want events, dining, and the riverfront right outside their door. If you would rather have space to spread out and still be a quick drive from it all, areas like Sango, St. Bethlehem, and the communities off Highway 41A give you room while keeping you close to the action.
Whether you are already a Clarksville local or thinking about making a move here, weekends like this show off what makes the area special. If you are curious what your home is worth or what your budget can buy in the neighborhoods near all this fun, I would love to help.
