SPORTS + TAILGATES Cincinnati is the birthplace of professional baseball and home to Major League Baseball's Reds, the NFL Bengals, and MLS FC Cincinnati. And in true Cincy style, game day isn’t just about the action, it’s about the legendary pre-game tailgating party that takes over the riverfront – and anyone can join in. BEER TUNNELS + BOURBON TOURS Head below ground into Prohibitionera speakeasies and rediscovered beer caves that once fuelled the city’s booming brewing empire. Then head across the river to Northern Kentucky for The B-Line® — a gateway to the Kentucky Bourbon Trail® with distilleries, bars and restaurants. ONLY-HERE ATTRACTIONS Pose with the 500 signs that glow neon at the American Sign Museum; cruise the Ohio River on a paddle steamer; visit the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center at the very line that once divided North and South. The stories, surprises and heritage run deep here. WALK THROUGH TIME Over-the-Rhine preserves the nation’s largest collection of 19th-century Italianate buildings. Findlay Market, in operation since 1852, serves up local flavors and culture. Cross the Roebling Suspension Bridge — the Brooklyn Bridge prototype — and take in history with every step. SO CINCY FLAVORS Try a Cincinnati chili “three-way”, that's spaghetti topped with chili and then a mound of shredded cheddar cheese. Savour Germanborn goetta sausage or indulge in Graeter’s small-batch ice cream. Add James Beard-recognized chefs and you’ve got one of America’s best food cities. FESTIVALS ON REPEAT Prost with almost a million friends at Oktoberfest Zinzinnati — the largest in the U.S. Celebrate goats and beer at Bockfest or local breakfast sausage at Goettafest. Taste your way through summer at Taste of Cincinnati. And don’t miss BLINK, America’s largest light and art fest.
