Destination Cleveland

Twenty years after the Cleveland Rockers played their final game, professional women's basketball is back in The Land. The arrival of the Cleveland Sirens marks a new era for one of the fastest-growing leagues in sports and gives one of the country's most passionate fan bases another team to rally behind. In Cleveland, sports have always been about more than what happens on the court.

Last season did not quite go as planned — but Cleveland Browns fans never stay down for long. Win or lose, through every heart-pounding victory and gut-wrenching defeat, we bleed orange and brown. Now, with a new season nearly upon us, a reloaded squad hopes to chart a course back to the playoffs. So, as the Browns get ready to kick off another training camp, it’s safe to say that we’re feeling pretty optimistic about the season ahead.

When the summer heat turns up, there’s no better place to cool down than on Cleveland’s waterfront. Fortunately, getting on the water in The Land is easier than you might think. With miles of shoreline, a winding river and plenty of ways to explore them both, our city was practically built for summer on the water. Whether you’re paddling, cruising or simply taking a dip, these water adventures make it easy to dive in and make the most of the season.

The last Millennials are turning 30, with Gen Z close behind, and Cleveland is entering her 30s too (give or take a couple centuries). Your 20s are for staying out late and testing your limits, usually without a lot of consequences. Your 30s are for curating the days and nights that leave you a little groggy the next morning but with memories you'll be talking about for years. As of July 22, 2026, Cleveland is 230, flirty and thriving.

There are normal ways to announce you’re moving back home to Cleveland. You could call your mom. Update your LinkedIn. Text your childhood best friend. Or … you could skip the FB announcement and reveal your homecoming with all the restraint of a Cleveland championship parade. Regardless, we support all these options. In no particular order, here are 23 reasons to move back to Cleveland … especially if you’ve suddenly found yourself in free agency (hypothetically of course).

In this episode of Legends of the Land, we explore The Legend of Lake Erie's Islands and uncover the stories behind one of the region's most surprising getaway destinations. From beaches and wineries to historic landmarks and vibrant summer energy, these islands offer a completely different experience - without ever leaving Ohio.

You've seen them in your social media feeds, you see them on TV and you see them proudly displayed in publications both locally and nationally. We're talking about those Cleveland script signs and their scenic backdrops, which offer some of the best group photo ops in The Land. The signs are a creation of Destination Cleveland, which installed the original three signs in 2016. Today, Cleveland boasts six signs that remain just as popular as when we unveiled them.

Cleveland goes crazy for baseball. Back in the ‘90s (and early ‘00s), we packed the stadium full for 455 straight games. That’s over five seasons of sellout crowds. Now, the Guardians boast a future Hall of Famer in the dugout, a formidable pitching rotation and bright, young talent on the diamond. Baseball is more than just a game in Cleveland. It’s a lifestyle, especially on game days at Progressive Field. Make it a Guardians weekend.
