The Cleveland Scene is an alternative weekly newspaper based in Cleveland, Ohio. The newspaper includes highlights of Cleveland-area arts, music, dining, and films, as well as classified advertising. The first edition of the newspaper was published in the 1970s.

Cleveland Scene provides a yearly "Best Of" list for the Cleveland and outlying areas that includes Best Restaurants, Best Clubs, Best Theater, etc.

Cleveland Scene employs regular columnists as well as freelance journalists.

When the competing Cleveland Free Times was shut down briefly in 2003, the Scene was investigated for antitrust violations.

Cleveland Scene was founded in 1970. In 1998, the Scene was acquired by New Times Media. In 2005, New Times acquired Village Voice Media, and changed its name to Village Voice Media.

The Free Times and Cleveland Scene were purchased by Times-Shamrock Communications, located in Scranton, Pennsylvania, in 2008. Times-Shamrock is a media company that publishes daily and weekly newspapers throughout Pennsylvania, Virginia, Maryland, Florida, Michigan, and Texas. They also own radio stations in Baltimore.

In December 2013, Times-Shamrock sold Scene to the Cleveland-based Euclid Media Group, along with the Detroit Metro Times, Orlando Weekly and the San Antonio Current.
