If you're into sports, check into the rough and tumble ice hockey league, offering adult and youth hockey and power skating classes.
Conduct your evening out at the Bakersfield Symphony Orchestra.

Productions have included Beethoven's Overture to Egmont, Brahms Symphony No. 4 and Tchaikovsky's The Nutcracker.
Go puck crazy with the Bakersfield Condors professional minor-league hockey team. You might remember the team's earlier years as the Bakersfield Fog. However, today this sports team is best known as the Conquering Condors, and they play their games at the city's infamous Rabobank Arena.
Step inside McMurphy's Irish Pub to enjoy the nightlife of a watering hole that's been around for 40 years.

Cheers!
