Experience Lakeside ALL Summer

The Chautauqua programming season is at the heart of the Lakeside experience and what sets it apart from a typical summer—a perfect balance of nurturing mind, body, and spirit.

Purchase a Season Chautauqua Pass and experience thousands of fun, enriching activities all summer long. A Season Chautauqua Pass provides access to concerts, lectures, worship services, recreational opportunities and beautiful views along Ohio’s Most Beautiful Mile from Memorial Day weekend to Labor Day.     

Whether you’re a cottage owner, a neighbor in Marblehead or Port Clinton, or live close by in Norwalk, Fremont or Sandusky, anyone can purchase a Season Chautauqua Pass and have access to summer fun.

Descriptions about Season Pass Types:
1. Adult Season Pass: Adult pass for the whole summer.
2. NEW Adult Leaseholder Season Pass: Lakeside recognizes that Leaseholders, also known as cottage owners, are paying assessments and continuing to steward and care for their cottages as part of the Lakeside community. We’ve created a Season Pass to help provide a discount to Leaseholders. Island View owners and season-long Campground residents are included in this discount. To purchase an Adult Leaseholder Season Pass, individuals must provide their Lakeside address when purchasing. Per each Lakeside address, Leaseholders can purchase a maximum of 10 Adult Leaseholder Season Passes in one transaction only.
3. NEW Adult Weekender Season Pass: We heard from many Lakesiders about how individuals are only able to visit on the weekends. To ease access, we’ve added an Adult Weekender Season Pass. This pass is valid Fridays-Sundays until 11:59 p.m. Sunday from May 23-Aug. 31, 2025. Please note guests will be charged the price of an Adult Weekday Pass if they leave after the 11:59 p.m. Sunday expiration.
4. Youth Season Pass: Individuals ages 13-21.
5. Child Season Pass: Individuals ages 5-12.
