Good morning, this is your Spokane Local Frequency for Saturday, July 26, 2025.
Spokane is buzzing with energy today as we kick off a summer weekend packed with community, creativity, commemoration, and a few surprises that make living here truly special. Let’s start with what’s making headlines. The aftermath of the Bryan Kohberger sentencing remains in the news, as community members in both Spokane and nearby Moscow reflect on the conclusion of a case that captured national attention. In a show of resilience, the city is also moving forward, with an eye on civic healing and continued conversations about public safety.
Today the air at Spokane International Airport promises to be electric as two World War II bombers grace the runway, offering aviation enthusiasts and families a rare chance to glimpse—or even soar aboard—pieces of history. For those inspired by the past, Barnes & Noble is hosting an author event this afternoon at 2 p.m. featuring Brian Kimmel's "Blue Skies, Troubled Waters," co-written with his grandmother, a true story of wartime resilience with local roots.
Sports and outdoors fans, saddle up. The Spokane Cycle Celebration is rolling through town all weekend with three routes for every level of cyclist, including a scenic 10-mile family ride along the Centennial Trail to Barker Station. Whether you’re dusting off your old bike or racing with friends, this event highlights Spokane’s love of the great outdoors.
Foodies, be on alert—today marks Spokane’s very first Armenian Festival downtown, part of the city’s Mini Cultural Grant Series. Expect vibrant music, folk dancing, and a feast of flavors that promise to introduce you to new favorites and bring the community closer together. If you’re seeking wellness with a side of local flavor, head to Liberty Lake for Yoga Uncorked at the Wine Cellars starting at 11:15 a.m., where you can stretch into your weekend and toast with a glass of Washington wine.
Music lovers are spoiled for choice. Classic rock meets costume drama tonight as Bohemian Queen delivers a high-energy Queen tribute show. Or catch the summer sounds of Starcourt, Spokane’s favorite 80s party band, tomorrow evening at the Arbor Crest Wine Cellars as part of their popular Summer Concert Series. For those with a taste for local arts, stop by the art show and live music in Browne’s Addition from 3 to 8 p.m., or saunter through the Emerson-Garfield Farmers Market on Monroe between 3 and 7 p.m. to catch produce, crafts, and the spirit of local entrepreneurship.
Let’s not forget some important community news. The Spokane County Sheriff’s Office recently apprehended a prolific offender in connection with a stolen RV, underscoring ongoing local efforts to curb property crime. Meanwhile, regional legislators continue to debate updates to Washington’s affordable housing plan—a topic that matters to many Spokane families as the city grows and changes.
That’s a wrap on today’s top local stories and ways to get involved. Whatever your weekend holds, be it music, history, cycling, global flavors, or just a leisurely stroll through the market, there’s something calling your name in Spokane today. This has been Spokane Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
