Things To Do
Blink
Taking place every two years, the 2026 event will span over 30 city blocks, stretching from Findlay Market in Over-the-Rhine, through downtown Cincinnati, and across the river into Northern Kentucky (Covington/Newport). It attracts artists from around the globe and brings over 2 million people to Cincinnati to discover art within the city. Learn more below.

Washington Park
We love this park! It is in the middle of downtown but is very quaint. We spent a lot of time walking through this park or having picnics when we lived in Over-The-Rhine. Washington Park will be participating in BLINK and have displays throughout the park.
Findlay Market
Findlay Market is the oldest continuously-operated public market in Ohio. The market is home to great butcher shops, locally-grown produce, as well as great coffee shops and sweet treats. Findlay Market and the area surrounding will be participating in BLINK.
Losanti
This Italian boutique steakhouse is one of our favorites. We went to dinner here after Patrick proposed! Reservations can be made below.
Pepp & Dolores
Our favorite Italian restaurant in the city. Delicious homemade pasta and excellent service. Reservations can be made below.
The Bagelry
Good, quick choice for breakfast in the heart of downtown.
Skyline Chili
A quintessential local favorite. Skyline is always our first stop when we return back to Cincinnati after traveling. There are many locations throughout the city.
