Things to Do in Cincinnati Today: Why Not Try Axe Throwing?

If you’re searching for things to do in Cincinnati today, you’ve likely seen the usual recommendations. You could stroll along the Banks or grab a coney at Skyline. But if you want to trade the “standard” Saturday for something that actually gets your heart racing, it’s time to try something with a little more edge.

Why not try axe throwing? It’s the ultimate way to shake up your routine, blow off some steam, and master a skill that—let’s be honest—is incredibly satisfying.


Located Just Down the Street from Findlay Market

We are perfectly situated in the heart of the action, just a short walk or quick ride from the historic Findlay Market. As the oldest continually operated public market in the city (founded in 1852), Findlay Market is a “must-see” destination that has even been named one of the top 10 public markets in the world by Newsweek.

Whether you’re spending the morning browsing meat, fish, and fresh produce from full-time vendors, or exploring the weekend farmer’s market for artisan crafts and pottery, Dueling Axes is the perfect next stop. Grab lunch at the market and then head down the street to us to burn off those calories with some competitive throwing!


Thursday Specials & Gameday Vibes

While we are the city’s premier destination for throwing, you don’t have to pick up an axe to enjoy the atmosphere. Walk-ins are always welcome! If you’re looking for a high-end lounge to hang out in, we have plenty to offer beyond the lanes:
