The City Club of Cleveland

The City Club is one of the oldest independent continuous free speech forums in the country, and is renowned for its tradition of debate and discussion. Our programs can be heard at The City Club or across the nation through our radio and television partners, as well as on our Podcasts and on YouTube. 

The City Club firmly believes in the free expression of all ideas and the benefits of an open exchange. It is non-partisan and does not take positions on issues. All speakers must answer unfiltered, unrehearsed questions directly from the audience.

Our Mission is to create conversations of consequence that help democracy thrive.
Our Vision is of strong, informed individuals and communities that prize freedom of speech and civil, civic dialogue.
