FESTIVAL STREET FAIR FRENZY

Summer in the Inland Northwest is packed with outdoor events, meaning there’s plenty to do just about every weekend. This coming Saturday is host to two outdoor community street fairs: the Garland Street Fair and the South Perry Street Fair. Up on Garland, it’s all about the Wizard of Oz. The 11thannual event features a flying monkey pet costume contest as one of many activities. Across town, the Perry District’s community fair includes a parade, bouncy castle, vendors, interactive booths and plenty of neighborhood charm. And hey, there’s definitely enough time in the day to attend both. — CHEY SCOTT Garland Street Fair • Sat, July 20 from 10 am-5 pm • Free • garlanddistrict.com • South Perry Street Fair • Sat, July 20 from 10 am-5 pm • Free • southperry.org

SPORTS MUD SLOG

This weekend, “Puddle Jumpers” and “Extreme Muddy Buddies” are lacing up their running shoes for Coeur d’Alene’s third-annual Muddy Miles race. In past years, the 2-mile fun run has attracted tutu-wearing, business-suited and bikini-clad teams of three or more willing to muck it up in the obstacle-laden course of puddles and goo. It’s free to watch, but spectators can purchase water balloons to bean their favorite runners in support of the fundraiser. — BETH NOTTURNO Muddy Miles • Sat, July 20 from 3-6 pm • $10-$35 • North Idaho Fairgrounds • 4056 N. Government Way, Coeur d’Alene • muddymiles.com • 208-415-0292

MUSIC CAN’T BEAT IT

It’s been four years since Michael Jackson’s untimely death, but we’re not willing to let go of the King of Pop just yet. An MJ tribute concert performance is coming to Spokane, featuring Kenny Wizz, a famous Jackson impersonator. Transport yourself back in time to the Jackson 5 before all the moonwalking, “woo-hooing,” and pelvic thrusting, and through Michael Jackson’s life and music. Audiences can relive legendary Jackson moments or see them for the first time in this one-night show that melds the pop star’s iconic choreography and costumes into stage renditions of 20 hit songs. — MYCHAELA NICKOLOFF Michael Jackson HIStory II • Wed, July 24 at 8 pm • $39-$59 • INB Performing Arts Center • 334 W. Spokane Falls Blvd. • ticketswest.com • 279-7000
