For some local traditions, it’s never too early to start planning.

The Short North Tour of Homes & Gardens is on Saturday, Sept. 14 + Sunday, Sept. 15 from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. This yearly event lets the community take self-guided tours through popular Short North homes, many of which were built in the 1800s + 1900s. Tickets are available now at a discounted price, and will continue to be on sale leading up to the event.

In the meantime, early birds can get a sneak peek by picking up tickets to the preview party. Start the afternoon with a quick look inside select homes from 4-7 p.m., then make your way to Hubbard Park Place for its rooftop club house. Here, you’ll have cocktails + finger foods from 7-10 p.m. overlooking the city while under the stars.
