About half an hour away from the heart of Cincinnati, Trammel Fossil Park in Sharonville is a wonderfully underappreciated family attraction. At the far end of an industrial park road, this hidden treasure offers tons of family fun for those budding paleontologists or anyone with an interest in natural history. The Fossil Hunt allows visitors to explore the plethora of fossils hands-on.

You know it’s autumn when Oktoberfest-Zinzinnati rolls around. Mark the change of the seasons with some of the best German-style music, food and beer in the Midwest at this festival. The largest Oktoberfest in North America, Zinzinnati celebrates Cincy’s true party spirit with an abundance of fun for everyone—including the "World’s Largest Chicken Dance" in Fountain Square.

Journey back to when Cincy was one of the most prosperous cities in the country. Cincinnati Brewery District Lager Tours not only showcase the Queen City’s rich (and delicious) brewing history, it also explores the influence of prohibition on the culture. See all the big-name breweries and the tunnels beneath them that played major roles in the development of the city.

Head to the great outdoors for the chance to catch your favorite popular artists performing live. The Riverbend Music Center hosts several concerts in their large outdoor pavilion. With seating for over 20,000 people readily available, it is no wonder that Riverbend has become Cincy’s go-to music festival amphitheater and entertainment venue.
