The Greek Theatre

Built at the turn of the 20th Century, this theater has played host not only to the University's graduation ceremonies, but has also been one of the premier venues in the city for live shows, and one of the only under the open sky. Designed like a classical Greek amphitheater with its tiered concrete seating and immense stage, it seats 8,000, and every seat is a good one as the acoustics are fantastic. Since it is outdoors, be sure to bring a coat or sweater as it gets chilly even during the summer, and a blanket if you want to sit on the grass before the stage.

Berkeley Art Museum

This museum has been bringing culture, diversity, fine art and more to Berkeley since 1970. BAM houses an impressive and ever-changing collection of fine art, sculpture and artifacts that span ages and cultures, countries and places. Find the masterpieces from from Impressionists to Surrealists to Post-modernists. Past exhibits have included a collection of mandolins from Tibet from the 15th Century, as well as the paintings of famed lesbian artist Romaine Brooks. There's always something here that captures the imagination, challenges thought and establishment, and entertains as much as it intrigues.

Berkeley Art Center

A gallery exhibiting various artworks, the Berkeley Art Center is a slice of vibrant, colorful art in the northern area of the city of Berkeley. Apart from art exhibitions, the center also plays host to numerous live music and literary events. Entrance to the gallery is free of charge, however donations are accepted and encouraged.

Lawrence Hall of Science

This is a hands-on science museum. Walk in past a full-scale fiberglass model of a fin whale and indulge in earthquake simulations, dice-rolling games of probability, a planetarium and hundreds of other exhibits for both kids and adults. The younger set will particularly appreciate the Wizard Lab. The view from here (day or night) is about the best you will get in the Bay Area.

California Memorial Stadium

Located on the campus of the University of California Berkeley, California Memorial Stadium hosted its first game in 1923, and has remained the home of the California Golden Bears football team ever since. Added to the US National Register of Historic Places in 2006, the stadium underwent a major renovation after the 2010 season to update the facilities and make the complex seismically safe, which was especially important because it lies directly on the active Hayward Fault. Seating up to 63,000 spectators, the stadium is named in memory of all Californians who lost their lives in World War I. For those not wanting to pay for a ticket, games can be seen for free (albeit at a considerable distance) on Tightwad Hill, located on the eastern side of the stadium. One of the most famous plays in college football history, known simply as "The Play," took place here during The Big Game versus Stanford University in 1982.

Pacific Film Archive

Located at the Berkeley Art Museum, the Pacific Film Archive is the pre-eminent showplace in the Bay Area for serious fans of film and film history. The archive itself contains 7,000 titles, including the largest collection of Japanese films outside of that country. The year-round programming includes films from around the world, from the silent era to the latest in experimental film and video. The library is recognized worldwide as an important resource for film study. The theater is newly refurbished and is designed for the optimum viewing experience, including careful attention to lines of sight and comfortable seats. Once you've visited this place, the local multiplex will never seem quite the same again.
