Spring Events Around Omaha
Spring is finally here (!!!) and Omaha has a lot going on.
I put together this roundup of events happening around the metro in April and May 2026 so you've got something to look forward to (and something to actually suggest in the group chat).
Tap the links to get more details about each event. And as always, double check details before you go cause things can change before I get a chance to update this list.
