Michael Deemer, President & CEO from The Downtown Cleveland Alliance spoke to Bill about Reimagining Downtown Summer Series - Summer Recreation Series - Summer Music! - Food Truck Series - Perk Station

Reimagining Downtown Summer Series 

  • Downtown Cleveland’s vibe is what makes it such an attractive place to live, work, visit, and invest. The events that we program Downtown Cleveland’s public spaces with are a big part of that vibe. 
  • This summer we’ve launched a Summer Series of recreation, music, and food trucks to create a vibe with a mix of Downtown Cleveland’s historic buildings, walkable districts, and vibrant parks. 
  • As you come downtown for our Reimagining Downtown Summer Series or for concerts, ball games, and theater, we are encouraging Clevelanders to arrive early and stay late to support downtown’s new and longtime small businesses. 

Summer Recreation Series  

  • Starting in June, join us for free recreational activities in Downtown including the Harbor Hustlers Run Club and North Coast Namaste - free yoga for all ages 
  • Sign-ups for season 2 of Lakefront Leagues Sand Volleyball! Taking place July-Sept registration is open now! 

Summer Music!

Perk Station 

  • Along with animating downtown with great programs, we work to make sure the downtown experience is clean, safe, and welcoming.
