The 11 best things to do in Greater Boston this weekend

This Sunday closes out summer with a genuinely wide mix — a stadium-sized Latin pop show, an intimate folk night at Club Passim, and everything from a doom-rock triple bill to a circus gone sinister. Add in Franklin Park's glowing lantern trail, the SoWa market sprawl, and Memorial Drive closed to cars, and there's plenty to fill a last-weekend-of-August day.
