Since its start in 1990, the Northside House Tour has delighted thousands of Cincinnati-area residents with tours of private homes in our vibrant and thriving community. Each year up to a dozen homes, chosen for integrity of architecture, unique design, and personal flair, have their doors thrown open in this non-profit event – a bi-annual tour run by volunteers with the support of the Northside Community Council.

Advance tickets available online and in-person at CAIN, The Chocolate Bee, Lierer’s Market, North Side Bank - Northside & Finneytown locations, Northside Farmers Market, Ruth’s Parkside Cafe, and Shake It Records.

All ticket holders must go to Northside House Tour HQ at WordPlay Cincy (1556 Chase Avenue) between 11:30 a.m. - 3:30 p.m. on the day of the tour to pick up the Northside House Tour Passport, which has the addresses of the self-guided tour.

The Tour begins at noon but, because it is self-guided, guests are welcome to start at whatever time they would like. Guests may start the tour and proceed from location to location as they wish; there is no set route. The Tour ends at 5:00 p.m.; all guests are invited to also attend the Northside House Tour after-party at Urban Artifact from 5:30 p.m. – 7:30 p.m.

This is a rain-or-shine event; no ticket refunds or exchanges.
