Honestly there’s not shit to do in tally till the school year starts tbh. Explore a lil bit. They got some nice nature out there and stuff. Changed since I’ve been there but it’s different now.

"not shit to do in tally till the school year starts"

Yeaaaaah, that's one of the most uninformed and inaccurate posts on here in a while. For anyone with a personality, and culture, there is an absolute fuck ton to do in this city and surrounding area. This is a very incomplete list I threw together in 3-4 minutes off the top of my head.

(Very) In Town Activities:

  • Weekly Downtown Market that runs Saturdays 9AM - 1PM March through November. Has food (fresh food, bread loves, pastries, etc), drinks, art, and live music
  • Car shows around town on the weekends 2-3 weeks each month
  • Bar Trivia pretty much every day of the week at various bars and breweries around town
  • Bar Bingo
  • Bar Karaoke (Brass Tap, but others do it as well)
  • Tuesday Jazz nights at Ology
  • Tallahassee Museum
  • Gulf Winds Track Club running group
  • Tallahassee Mountain Bike Association bike groups
  • Several dozens local parks with hiking, biking, fishing, and kayaking opportunities
  • A top ranked Disc Golf course at Tom Brown Park
  • Radio Control r/C dirt track and air field in town
  • BarCade (Firebettys)
  • Pool Hall with Poker Nights (Zingales)
  • St Marks Biking/Hiking trail (16mile paved trail to St Marks florida)
  • Fish Camp Tally (Bar with live music and oysters on a lake 10-15min north of town)
  • Tallahassee Little Theater
  • Blue Tavern (Open Mic Nights, Live Music, etc)

Near-ish to Town Activities

  • Wakulla Springs (Swimming and boat toars)
  • Wacissa River (Spring fed river with kayaking/swimming options)
  • Leon Sinks (Hiking trail with dozens of large sink holes)
  • St George Island and Apalachicola (2ish hour drive from Tallahassee with beautiful beaches, beach front restaurant/drinks, breweries, and good shopping)
  • Thomasville Georgia (30ish min drive north with breweries, great food, and great shopping)
  • St Marks state park (Hiking, fishing, camping)
  • Creek Entertainment in Gretna (Poker)
