Veterans Memorial Auditorium

Veterans Memorial has the best seat in the house! Located along the banks of the beautiful Scioto River, we're within just a short walking distance from downtown. Being that close is one less concern when time is a factor and if you have to drive, we're easily accessible from all interstate arteries, just blocks away from I-70 and I-71. But don't worry, just because we're downtown doesn't mean you have to deal with downtown parking. Veterans Memorial makes parking worry-free with our well-lit, 950 parking spaces.

Veterans Memorial’s 3,916 seat auditorium is the largest in Columbus. Built in 1955 and recently renovated and remodeled at a cost of over 11 million dollars, Vets stage has hosted such legendary and diverse performers as Elvis Presley and Conway Twitty as well as Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, N’ Sync! and is the home of the most prestigious bodybuilding event in the world, The Arnold Schwarzenegger Classic.
