Activities for College Students in Canton Ohio

Hope Newton
Are you a college student or in your early 20s? Are you looking for a something to do on the weekend or activities at night? Here you will find a large range of activities that will appeal to people of this age. These activities may not be something all individuals are interested in but you should be able to find something here you will enjoy.

Movies

In Canton there are two main movie theaters. The first theater is Tinseltown, which is located right across from Walmart at 4720 Mega St Nw North Canton, OH 44720. If you are interested in calling for the movie showings or price the phone number is (330) 305-9888. At this theater you will find all the latest releases but it will a bit expensive for most college students. Another theater in Canton, that most college students refer to as the "dollar theater" offers older movies at a much lower ticket price. The actual name of this theater is Movies 10 and is located at 6284 Dressler Rd. Nw North Canton, OH 44720 and their phone number is 330-497-9118. Another option for movies is always to go to Redbox and rent a movie. It only cost $1 plus tax so it is a very good price and affordable for college students.

Bowling

This is another activity that many college students enjoy. It is fun to get a group of friends together and go bowling. It is an activity that is relatively inexpensive. One of the cheaper bowling alleys is called College Bowl and is located at 2976 Market Ave N, Canton OH 44714. There are also many other bowling alleys in the area and you can look online or in the phone book for these. College Bowl is the cheapest I have found.

Nightlife

There are not many clubs and bars in the Canton area. You will find a few bars but the majority of night clubs are located in Akron. I wrote another article where you can see the best clubs in Akron. There is one club that has recently opened in Canton. It's at the Stables, which is by Mercy Hospital. This opens up on Thursday nights and some Fridays or Saturdays. You must be 18 to get in and 21 to be served alcohol. The address for this is 2317 13th St NW, Canton, OH 44708 and it usually costs $5 to get in. There is music and dancing.

Dinner

In Canton you can find many places to eat. By the Strip you can find most chain restaurants, fast food or sit down. This can be rather expensive but it is a great way for a large group of people to go out and have fun. You could also go out for ice cream. Milk and Honey is one of my favorite places in Canton to get ice cream and its located on Cleveland Ave NW, in Canton OH.

These are a few activities I have found a majority of my friends and other college aged people I know do. Also make sure to check your college for events because they often have events on campus, including plays, music events and other events.
