Here's a taste of what's happening this weekend.

The residents of Yarmouth, Maine invite you to come celebrate the 43rd annual Yarmouth Clam Festival, which kicks off this Friday.
One of Maine's most popular summer events, this year's festival will deliver expanded versions of newer events, such as It's Clamtastic!, and will delight participants with ever-popular ones, such as the Friday night parade, Saturday night fireworks, the Clam Shucking contests, Firefighters' Muster, performances by noted musicians and entertainers and, of course, lots and lots of clams!

The annual wine fair in Sigoulès, France (la Foire aux Vins de Sigoulès) is on this Saturday and Sunday featuring music, dancing and plenty of wine tasting.

Bethlehem, Pennsylvania is hosting their 23rd annual Blueberry Festival this weekend. Festival goers can expect several stages of live music, an array of craft vendors and delicious food featuring everything from pulled pork sandwiches to warm Pennsylvania Dutchlinks pound cake with pecan glaze to blueberry coffee cake and strudel.
