Free Events in Akron, OH

Akron has one of the best free events scenes in northeast Ohio. Between the City of Akron's Lock 3 summer programming, free admission days at the Akron Art Museum, weekly events at the Akron-Summit County Public Library, programs in Summit Metro Parks, and community festivals across Highland Square, North Hill, Cuyahoga Falls, and downtown, there's almost always something happening that costs nothing. This page collects every free event currently scheduled in Akron Pulse. Free here means an event with a published price of zero — concerts, art openings, library programs, outdoor festivals, fitness classes, lectures, fundraisers with no entry fee, and community gatherings.
