There's nothing quite like watching some supercharged live music. In Providence, one of the best places to check out the electric action on stage is The Strand Ballroom. Whether it's rock, rap, country or alternative, you'll find an impressive selection of acts with equally diverse styles regularly on the bill at this nightlife venue. Showtimes and admission prices vary depending on the specific act, so make sure to check the website before heading out.

With the pressures of deadlines and work and bills and everyday life, sometimes you both feel like escaping it all. While you may not be able to escape as far away as you would like, maybe a romantic date on the New England Fast Ferry will create a special memory for the two of you. This ferry covers the area from Providence to Newport and back. Rides are between an hour and an hour and a half, so you can make a little getaway before you both have to come back to reality!

At AS220, creative artistic expression is highly encouraged. This popular downtown spot brings together such diverse groups as local artists, families, and tourists to enjoy selections from the city's arts, music and entertainment scene. The venue hosts live performances at least six nights a week that include live bands, poetry readings and performance art, just to name a few. There is also a gallery on site that features a rotating exhibit of the work of local artists.
