Dave Lindquist previews can't-miss events on 2025-2026 A&E calendar

Each year, IBJ publishes an A&E Fall Preview guide. And for the past two years, reporter Dave Lindquist has packed that guide full of can’t-miss events for the fall, winter and even into the spring. Dave pours over the schedules of dozens of organizations and event spaces in town to make his picks, which include big-time performances as well as the kinds of events that might otherwise fly under the radar. For this week’s episode of the IBJ Podcast, IBJ Editor Lesley Weidenbener talked with Dave about how he decides what makes the list and which events he’s most excited about.
