Last updated: September 7, 2026

Looking for something fun to do in Nampa this weekend? Here are a few local events, food, live music, arts, and easy things to enjoy in and around Nampa from September 11–13.

 

The weather is looking great for the weekend, with highs around 80°F Friday, 74°F Saturday and 72°F Sunday, along with cool mornings and evenings. It should be a great weekend for outdoor festivals, farmers markets, live music, wine country, and exploring the Treasure Valley.

 

We always start with Nampa first, but we’ll also include nearby Treasure Valley events when they are unique, close by, or worth the short drive.
