THE PARAMOUNT THEATRE http://www.paramounttheatre.com This is one of my favorite things about Oakland, and it is truly a special place. I have organized a private tour of the theatre for anyone who is in town early enough.

 
 
 

The tour is on Friday May 9th from 4-5pm. We will meet outside the Theatre at 3:45 (don’t be late or we will have to go without you). Please check the box on your registration form if you plan on attending! The Paramount Theatre is just one block from Sweets Ballroom on Broadway in downtown Oakland.

THE OAKLAND MUSEUM http://museumca.org
The Oakland Museum of California is one of the finest museums of the Bay Area and is located just a few blocks from all of the hotels listed in the places to stay section. If you have any time to spare, consider spending it here.

GONDOLA RIDES http://www.gondolaservizio.com You can go on a 25 minute Gondola cruise of Lake Merritt in a genuine Gondola- gondolier and all! $45 for a couple, and $10 for each additional person- they can take groups up to 6.
