April 24, 2026: #WhatToDo this #Weekend - From ‘Tumbleweeds Kids Film Festival’ to Earth Day Celebrations
Thursday, 23 April, 2026
Here are Fan Effect producer KellieAnn Halvorsen’s favorite fandom and nerdly picks for #WhatToDo this #Weekend across Utah for the weekend of Friday, April 25. Films are in focus with the big movie of the week focusing on the pop-king himself in the musically inclined biopic, “Michael.” The Salt Lake Film Society continues their Comedic Relief Series with ”Wayne’s World,” and “Clueless” screenings. Our festival pick of the week is the massive (and free) Tumbleweeds Film Festival showcases films about kids and for kids, by The Utah Film Center. And there are Earth/Arbor Day celebrations galore including at the Tracy Aviary, Ogden Nature Center, and the Utah Cultural Celebration Center. And if that wasn’t enough.. Our FanX friends are making some sort of announcement at the Clark Planetarium Saturday night, right before a screening of “Dune: Part 2,” to close out their SCI-FI month! As always, please remember to visit nowplayingutah.com to find even more arts and cultural experiences across Utah. Another great place to check out ideas, and share with me, is by searching for Facebook events. The brains behind Fan Effect are connoisseurs of categories surpassing nerdy, with a goal to publish a weekly "What to Watch” (taken from KSL-TV's Friday segment) and “What to Do” on the weekend minisodes, and two deep-dives episodes a month on shows, creative works, artists, local events, and other fandom topics. Based in the beautiful Beehive State, Fan Effect celebrates Utah's unique fan culture as it has been declared The Nerdiest State in America by TIME, and is hosted by KSL Movie Show's Andy Farnsworth and Deseret News / KSL Podcasts' KellieAnn Halvorsen.
