The Times-Union Center for the Performing Arts is a center for professional and community artistry in downtown Jacksonville. A cornerstone of the downtown area, this beautiful three-venue facility is committed to supporting a wide range of entertainment experiences at the highest level of professionalism.

Touching the displays is a requirement at the Hands On Children's Museum, which resembles a castle on the outside, and a scientific-discovery fun house on the inside! More than 15 major exhibits and attractions like "Little Vets," "Kids Mini Bank," and "Winn Dixie Lil' Grocery" will keep the kids enthralled for hours.

Ready for an adventure? Then head over to Adventure Landing, where you'll have all the fun of a huge theme park, in a smaller package that you can experience in a day. This mini theme park attraction includes a water park, game room, go carts and putt putt golf course. Best of all, it's located right off Beach Blvd.

Start off your night with authentic Irish appetizers, traditional Irish dishes along with other menu items. Quench your thirst with a drink from 50 beers on tap or other libations and cocktails. Enjoy live music from your favorite bands at Lynch's Irish Pub on stage every night from 10am -2am.
