Catching a rough but impressive up-and-coming band or seeing an established group play at Cleveland's Agora Theater and Ballroom is much like having the musicians hang out in your living room. The entertainment venue is thick with retro charm and a certain kind of roughness that is superbly genuine. The sound system may be a bit distorted and the crowd may not be the most refined, but the spirit of the venue only adds a sense of authenticity to whatever is happening on stage. There are two stages for concerts as well as a smaller lounge for more low-profile performances.

Everyone is all too familiar with that feeling of being in a club that you just don't quite feel comfortable in. That will never be the case when you arrive at the ParkView Nite Club. Touted as “a cool place for shady people,” this Cleveland favorite nightlife destination features such fun as a reggae brunch, blues jams on Wednesday nights, a great menu for any sized appetite, and an always-impressive schedule of special events that you won't want to miss.

The Rocky River Nature Center offers several excellent recreation trails designed more for walking and getting closer to the natural beauty of Cleveland's Rocky River Reservation. The beautiful area stretches out north of Cedar Point in North Olmsted.
