Our attractions take you from high in the sky in a glider plane to down underground in one of a few caverns. You will not be left wanting for fun things to do in and near State College, on the Penn State campus, Boalsburg, Bellefonte or other towns within Centre County as you build your itinerary. If you want to relax to have a drink, check out the Central PA Tasting Trail for unique and local beverages.
If sports are your go-to, Penn State competes in the NCAA and Big Ten Conference and the State College Spikes play in short season Single-A baseball from June-September. In fact, our football stadium becomes the fourth largest city in Pennsylvania on Penn State Football game days. The Bryce Jordan Center is home to both Penn State women's and men's basketball, as well as a killer lineup of concerts and shows.
If you're a family with small children check out our page on fun things to do with kids in our region. Another wildly popular option to get your trip started is our official Happy Valley Bucket List. Request a free Central PA Visitors Guide to get your planning started!
