March in Central Ohio is coming in hot — even though the temperatures might not reflect that — with concerts, comedy, sports, and one of the most unique hockey games you’ll ever see. Winter is finally giving way to Spring, which means there’s tons to celebrate (and lots of ways to celebrate, too)!

Whether you’re gearing up for Ohio State baseball’s season opener, catching Journey’s Farewell Tour, or laughing your face off with Adam Ray, there’s no shortage of ways to fill your calendar.

Oh, and did we mention a whole lineup of festivals, markets, and St. Patrick’s Day celebrations?
