We’re still on summer break — but there’s a variety of fun events still happening in New Jersey over the next few days. This week’s local Hoboken + Jersey City events guide has everyone covered with Hoboken Sings!, Smorgasburg, an artisan market, and more — and since many of us will be traveling around NJ this weekend, we’re expanding our list beyond Hudson County. Below is a list of greater New Jersey events happening this weekend, July 7th – July 10th.
