Patios are fine, but rooftop terraces truly raise the bar. We’ve rounded up seven Cambridge roof decks where you can take your summer plans to the top, quite literally. Trade street-level scenery for sky-high views at these standout spots.

THIS WEEKEND

🌊 Live Music and Ocean Breeze

Times Vary around Boston

You’ve got two chances to catch live music by the water this weekend. Harborwalk Sounds brings Berklee musicians to Seaport tonight, then Saturday’s Block Party takes over the Watershed with DJs, dancing and art-making.

💚 Garden Party Thrifting

Tomorrow in East Boston (3PM)

Bring your gently used clothes and leave with something new (to you). There’ll be local musicians, snacks and plenty of chances to trade instead of toss.

🎶 Britney Beach Party Drag Brunch

Saturday at Citrus & Salt (11AM)

It’s Britney, beach. Drag queens serve looks while you crush beachy brunch plates and themed cocktails.

🎨 Get Artsy

Saturday in Somerville (12PM)

Somerville’s going full creative mode with two free festivals in one day. ArtBeat takes over Davis Square while FIGMENT turns Assembly Row into an interactive art playground.

💪 Move Your Body

Sunday around Boston (9:45AM)

Sit, stay and stretch with puppy yoga and a dog meet-and-greet in Everett, or jumpstart your Sunday with a FREE strength and conditioning class in the South End.

Let robots handle the grind. You’ve got better things to do.

LOCALS ONLY

  • We’re making summer Fridays even better by dropping $100 around Boston. Tomorrow we’ll be keeping cool in the shade at a park in the city’s biggest neighborhood… the one that shares its name.

  • Urban Park’s rooftop turns retro tonight with a throwback screening of Flubber. Free movie, free popcorn and ‘90s nostalgia bouncing around the roof.

  • Are you Boston’s reigning Mouseketeer? Prove it at Disney Trivia tonight. Trident Books invites you to be part of their world with a deep dive into movies, theme parks and more.

  • Canton comic Bill Burr traded punchlines for percussion when he hopped behind the drum kit with the Pretenders at a recent show in London.

One more day til the weekend, we got this!
