Cleveland Articles

If the thought of spending the evening with more than 120 breweries serving up 400+ craft beers from around the nation doesn’t strike your fancy, we’re not sure what does.

Pillow-top mattresses inside opulent historic spaces along a bustling city street? Five hundred thread count sheets matched with centuries-old bronze and marble décor? Free wi-fi inside a Victorian mansion amidst a neighborhood of contemporary art?

Whether you’re here on business or in town to visit family, a visit to Cleveland in November and December means the city is glittering with the swell of holiday excitement. Cleveland fully embraces the dazzle of the season with both large-scale and quaint events, activities and attractions that are sure to get you into the holly jolly spirit.

Thanks in large part to Cleveland’s industrial backbone, this once primarily blue-collar town is known for its beer. On a somewhat daily basis, it feels as though new breweries and beer bars are popping up on every street corner.

No one’s saying there’s anything wrong with the traditional way of ringing in the New Year with dinner and some bubbly. After all, Cleveland’s diverse and varied dining scene is quickly making national headlines for itself. (Plus, there are a ton of restaurants offering great packages.)

Looking for that perfect gift for your Cleveland clients?

Every Christmas Eve, TBS commences its 24-hour marathon airing of A Christmas Story. The tradition, which has been going since 1992, brings this quirky—yet fun—Jean Shepherd holiday story to life and into the living rooms of families nationwide.

Maybe it’s your boss, a client, your spouse or someone on your holiday list who’s known for his or her refined tastes. Whomever they are, there are just some people who should receive a gift that doesn’t fall in the same holiday gift-giving category as fleece pajamas, romance fiction or Santa-themed neckties.

From “Silver Bells” to “White Christmas,” the holiday season really does comes to life through live music, classic holiday recordings and good, old-fashioned caroling.  When visiting Cleveland this season, be sure to add some merriment to your itinerary with some live Christmas music.

If you’re on the lookout for Made-In-China, mass-produced holiday gifts, there are a seemingly limitless number of big box stores dotting retail developments in virtually every city in the country. But, if you want to get a unique, one-of-a-kind gift that supports independent artists, Cleveland has you covered.
