CLEVELAND, Ohio—There’s never a shortage of things to do in Northeast Ohio, especially this time of year. While most folks have their sights trained on Halloween related fun (see our 2025 Haunted Attractions Guide ) there is a wide range of other options to explore, too.

From concerts, theater and cultural events, to dance, Cavaliers basketball and even a massive pet show, there’s something to appeal to your creative sensibilities. Here’s a look at what’s happening around town this weekend and beyond:
