Your Weekend
Have you made plans for the weekend yet? If not, we have a few ideas for your consideration.

Walter Bros Circus

The Walter Bros Circus is here in the Valley.

Enjoy a night of trapeze acts, clowns, and motorcycle riders taking on what's called the "globe of death".

The big top is located near 7th St & L St in Sanger.

This is a family-friendly show.

Tickets start at $10.

Performances begin Thursday and the last performance will be on Monday.

Madera Drive-In

Starting Friday, you can stay in the comfort of your car and watch a movie on the big screen in Madera. The drive-in is reopening.

Avengers: Infinity War will be playing on one side and the other side will play Rampage and The Quiet Place back-to-back.

General admission is $9.

Never Lift Half Mile

Air traffic will come to a halt on Saturday and Sunday at the Coalinga Airport.

Instead of planes taxing on the runway, spectators are in for a treat: over 200 cars will be racing their way to the finish line at this year's "Never Lift Half Mile" race.

It's a side-by-side race to see who is the fastest.

Gates open at 8 am and racing starts at 9 am.

Tickets are $10 for kids and $20 for adults.

Big Blue Block Party

Stop by the "Big Blue Block Party" this Saturday where the California Autism Center and Learning Group will be celebrating Austism Awareness Month.

This party will feature carnival games, crafts, food trucks, a resource fair, a sensory-friendly, quiet "escape room."

Also be sure to say hello to officers from the Fresno Police Department and Fresno Fire Department who are adding "fun" to the line of duty.

Don't forget to dress in blue, the color of autism awareness.

Organizers will be giving prizes away for best outfit.

Autism Awareness Superhero Fun Run

After the Big Blue Block Party, rest up, because Sunday is the Autism Awareness Superhero Fun Run.

The run will start at railroad park in Clovis.

Runners can choose two different times to start: 8 am and 1 pm.

Proceeds from this run benefit Fresno Autism Network.
