Local Area
A largely undiscovered gem of a town, Iowa City is home to countless activities and attractions, and the Sheraton Iowa City puts you in the heart of the action.
With two golf courses within a five-mile radius, and the Iowa River just a short walk away, opportunities for outdoor activities are abound. Sports fans can also support the University of Iowa's teams on their home turf at the nearby Kinnick Stadium and Carver Hawkeye arena.
A thriving area for the arts, Iowa City boasts venues like the Hatcher Performing Arts Center, the Riverside Theatre, the Angler Civic Theatre, and the University of Iowa's Museum of Art.
Downtown Iowa City also hosts a variety of festivals and events, including the University of Iowa's Riverfest in the spring, the Iowa Arts Festival in June, and the Iowa City Jazz Festival in July. Weekly events include Friday Night concerts on the pedestrian mall, and the farmers market, open Wednesday and Saturday, May through October.
