See who gets the final rose

Sugar Factory is hosting a watch party for the last episode of “The Bachelor” this season. It’s down to two women: Litia Garr and Newton’s own Juliana Pasquarosa. (Though, rumors say you might want to root on the New Englander tonight.) Coinciding with National Cocktail Day, Sugar Factory is also offering a special two-for-one deal on two of its ginormous goblets. So bring a friend, get a couple drinks, and stay seated to see who goes home with Grant Ellis in Monday night’s finale. (Monday, March 24 from 7:30 to 10 p.m.; 101 S. Market St., Boston; free)

Make Tuesday a bougie movie night

Alamo Drafthouse in Seaport — the most lux theatre in town — offers a $7 movie deal on Tuesdays. Watch new releases like “Black Bag” and “Novocaine” tomorrow for cheaper than movie theatre popcorn. Take a look at all the movies playing. (Multiple times on Tuesdays; 60 Seaport Blvd #315, Boston; $7)

Level up your table tennis skills

Play a round of ping pong at SPIN Boston on Tuesdays for just $9 after 9 p.m. (It’s typically $39 an hour, so this is quite the steal.) You can bring up to 9 friends and play as much as you want for the hour. Note: After 9 p.m., SPIN has a strict 21+ policy. (Multiple times on Tuesdays; 30 Melcher St, Boston; $9)

Hold space for this 2024 blockbuster

You might have watched “Wicked” three times already — but it’s just that good. Trident Booksellers is hosting a free screening of the movie on Thursday night. Make sure to arrive early to get a seat. (Thursday, March 27 from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m.; 338 Newbury Street, Boston; free)

BYO craft and watch a witchy classic

Witchcraft or witches and crafts? Head over to Side Quest Books and Games and bring your own craft that you’ve been meaning to finish — or buy a kit if you don’t have one — while watching the first three episodes of “Charmed.” There will be popcorn and non-alcoholic beverages provided, plus you can get a themed drink from Nook. (Thursday, March 27 from 7 to 9:30 p.m.; 1 Bow Market Way Suite 32, Somerville; $14.64)

Test your Dunder Mifflin knowledge

Question number one: How dare you? Well, Boston Public Market is daring you to show how much you know about “The Office” in a themed trivia night this Friday. Games start at 5:30 and 6:30 p.m., and it’s free to play. Start brushing up on those iconic episodes now. (Friday, March 28 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.; 100 Hanover St., Boston; free)

Party at the MFA

The MFA’s Late Nite series is back on Friday with a celebration of R&B music. Dance through the galleries and even take a sneak peek at “Van Gogh: The Roulin Family Portraits” a couple days before it’s open to the public. Advance tickets are sold out, but you can still grab them at the door starting at 8 p.m. for $25. (Friday, March 28 at 8 p.m.; 465 Huntington Ave., Boston; $25)

Shop local women-owned businesses

Close out Women’s History Month strong and support women entrepreneurs at two different markets this weekend. Shop handmade goods from a variety of vendors at Bizzy Spring Market in Revere on Saturday and Time Out Market’s International Women’s Day Market on Sunday. (Multiple locations and times; free)

Sip champagne as you plan the big day

If you or someone you know got recently engaged, this brunch event is for you. Boston Weddings is hosting a Bubbly Brunch designed to give you an exclusive pampering and planning experience at the Four Seasons. You’ll be able to meet some of the city’s top wedding professionals and learn what’s trending in design, decor, and more. There’s even a BOGO deal right now, so bring a friend and get the latest wedding inspo. (Sunday, March 30 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.; 1 Dalton St, Boston; prices vary)

Watch your ‘Pitch Perfect’ dreams come true

Yes, the ICCAs are very much a real annual competition. Ten talented university a capella teams across the Northeast are vying in the semifinals this Sunday at Berklee Performance Center for a spot in the finals in New York City. This year’s lineup will feature some of Boston’s best including Harvard University’s The Opportunes and two Northeastern University groups, Nor’easters and Pitch, Please! (Sunday, March 30 at 3 p.m.; 136 Massachusetts Ave, Boston; prices vary)
