New Year's Eve in Cleveland (London, Chesterland: to live, eat, area)

[Jules1967]

Hi there,

My husband and I spend time each Christmas with his parents in Chesterland, just east of Cleveland. We usually just hang out and eat/drink/be merry but this year we'll be there a bit later on, i.e. for New Year's Eve. My in-laws are pretty cool but really have no idea what might be going on in downtown Cleveland for New Year's! So are there any recommendations for stuff to do from you locals up there? The Little Italy area might be a good idea too since it would make the drive a bit quicker. I'm originally from London and it would be fine by me to live up there but my 'better' half loves the warmer weather so we've been stuck down here in VA and NC for the past 12 years!

cleveland has a beautiful display of lights fireworks etc.. Im not sure if this all happens downtown b4 christmas or on new years but theres alot of people down there! do some research on cleveland 2008 holiday celebrations..wish you the best, ps.after the celebrations get out of cleveland! its a bad year for wandering around in c-town outside of a group...regards,saltydog!
