15 Best Things to Do in Portland, Maine, From Seafood Tours to Island Day Trips | Condé Nast Traveler
"Nature meets culture at this open-air entertainment venue on the Fore River, surrounded by three acres of picnic-ready lawn. The space, with its industrial-cool restored railroad shed, partners each summer with the State Theatre of Portland to host big-name concerts (everyone from Bob Dylan to Modest Mouse and The Lumineers). The rest of the year it brings in festivals: In summer, its “Maker’s Market” events are a Valhalla for those who yearn to shop artisanal, with an onsite bar in easy reach. In winter, there's a well-tended skating rink that’s part family recreational center, part all-day, grown-up party. Whatever time of year or activity you come for, don’t neglect the epicurean attractions on the periphery, either: Thompson’s Point has a long track record of luring the most incredible food trucks in Southern Maine." - Alexandra Hall
