The Perseid Meteor shower happens every year, but it will be brighter this year than usual. In fact, it won't be this bright again for 100 years, meaning you won't get a chance to see it like this again - unless you are 1-3 years old, then maybe, just maybe ;).
This year it falls between August 11th (tonight folks!) and August 13th, wih the best veiwing being on the 12th. You don't need your august solar eclipse goggles for this one, but if you're interested in our night sky, you might want to plan to step outside and watch the Perseid Meteor Shower in the next three days.
Best Seen from the Northern Hemisphere.
