There's nothing quite like seeing the world from behind a set of handlebars, and that spirit of adventure is alive and well at the Redlands Bicycle Classic held every spring.

The world's top racers gather for this signature event that is thrilling for both spectators and participants.

The California Theatre of Performing Arts is the Inland Empire's Premiere Theater and has worked hard to legitimately earn that title. This stunning 1,718-seat auditorium was built in 1928 and continues the legacy by presenting a wide variety of different performances that include legitimate theater, musicals, ballet, recitals, plays, symphony celebrity headliners, fashion shows, corporate seminars, and even graduation and naturalization ceremonies. This entertainment venue continues to proudly serve a population of 26 million people within its 30 mile radius.

The extra travel time to nearby Redlands is worth it when you take a tour of the Edwards Mansion.
