Live music in the heart of Downtown Columbus!
From folk rock to the Columbus Symphony Orchestra, Columbus Commons is the official Downtown home for concert fans this summer. We produce a musical mix of free shows and rent the park to others to produce a variety of ticketed events that equates to no shortage of concert activity at the Commons. Check out the lineup and join us at the city’s center!
Easy and convenient parking is available just south of the park at the Columbus Commons Main Garage, located at 55 East Rich Street. Lawn chairs and blankets are welcome; please leave coolers at home.
We host a mix of free and ticketed events, so be sure to read the event details carefully! Concerts produced by Columbus Downtown Development Corporation are FREE, but some events at Columbus Commons may require you to claim free tickets or purchase tickets. If you have any questions about a concert, please reach out to us here.
