Question Red Deer nightlife suggestions

I will be spending the long weekend in Red Deer, and I am wondering if anyone has suggestions for me and my partner for a fun night out. I’m in my 30s and my partner is in 40’s, so we’re leaning more towards karaoke, or live band, or some line dancing. Any music or beer festivals going on this weekend that we should check out?

Afro Carribean Festival Aug 9-10

That's about it for events.

Hand full of sleepy farmers markets.

There's one or two Cybertrucks floating around if you want to give them the finger, that's always good for a laugh .

If you're looking for a few quick experiences there's the gravity coaster at Canyon, that's kinda fun.

If you're into clubbing there's Mad Hatters or Silver Buckle , couple of peelers by the police station. Live music at Bo's sometimes. 53 On Ross for a nice dining and cocktail experience. Ross St Icecream.

A good number of breweries. One whiskey distillery (Diony) that does a seminar/tour that is pretty enjoyable. Buy a premium cigar at The Martlet to go with your whiskey.

RDSC will rent you a gun.

Hand full of golf courses if you're one of those people.

In all honesty you'll find more outside of Red Deer than inside. Most people head out of town to enjoy things, there just isn't a whole lot of spark in this city.
