Why is living in Columbus so awesome? Well aside from our world famous sports teams, diverse cuisine, expansive Metro Parks system, and friendly people, we also have some of the best concert venues in the country.

You know what that means?

The best touring musicians and artists love coming here to perform! You can see rock legends like Bruce Springsteen one night and one of the most famous rappers in the world, like Nicki Minaj, the other night.

We’d say to pinch us because we must be dreaming, but hey, that’s just life in the 614!

So whether you’re a fan of live shows in intimate settings or arenas filled with thousands of fans, Columbus has so much to offer you this April.
