You know about the Battle of Flowers and Flambeau parades and the King William Fair, Fiesta’s big second-weekend events.

5. Movie
High-adrenaline action is a given for a Michael Bay movie, though he scales it down a bit in “Ambulance.” The fate of the world isn’t at stake, just the life of an injured policeman being transported by an ambulance that is hijacked by a pair of bank robbers (Jake Gyllenhaal and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II). Opens Friday in theaters.
