We thoroughly enjoyed this intimate venue and we most certainly will return. We saw Pat Benatar and her husband Neil perform live and we highly recommend this spot. We can't wait to see our next live performance here! read more

Centennial Terrace - Stage - Venues & Event Spaces Near Me - Sylvania, Ohio

This was my first time at this venue, I came here to see Lindsey Stirling tonight. First off, fantastic concert by Lindsey, but that's unsurprising... I think this is the 5th or 6th time I've seen her and actually the second time in Ohio (I live in the Detroit area), in 2019 I saw her at the Stranahan as well. To be fair we showed up around 8:15 p.m. for an 8:00 concert. I had been wanting to show up around 6:30 or 7:00 p.m. when the doors opened but we both work till 5:00 p.m. and the venue is about an hour and 15 minutes away, so by the time we had a quick dinner and got there with some breaks it was about 8:00. I had read all of the do's and don'ts of the venue so I knew that we could bring camp chairs for our general admission seats but could not bring the chair covers. Apparently they do have parking here and it's $10 but it was sold out. I saw something online about how parking might be for a fee but nowhere anywhere else did the venue mention it, so I do think they could improve on that. The parking was sold out so they also need to work on that. We ended up parking for $10 right across the street and I can't really complain because it was like a 5-minute walk, but we were lucky to even get in there. Again, I know we showed up late, but the venue itself should have more parking. There weren't a ton of places to sit - If you buy an actual seat they have benches that you sit on which I knew ahead of time, and I bought general admission just in case the concert got rained out. Lots of people were sitting in camp chairs but there were also a lot of people just standing, and it was hard to find somewhere to sit behind another group of sitting people, rather than the standing people. I ended up getting lucky and found a spot for maybe 1.5 chairs closer to the stage/reserved seating area, and that's where we sat for the concert. I feel like it's kind of an unwritten rule that if you're located in a group of camp chairs or on the benches that you should just sit, not stand; unfortunately a few people stood for the majority of the concert and even my 6'4" boyfriend was having trouble seeing. Overall I would come back here for a venue but I might buy reserved seats even though the benches did not look that comfortable. It was nice to have my own camp chair and I would definitely show up earlier next time but the parking situation was not great. One positive thing I will say is that you basically enter the venue right from the parking lot which is different than a lot of Detroit area places, with venues like Pine Knob and Meadowbrook you usually have quite a hike up and down hilly areas before you get to your seat. read more

Centennial Terrace is a great spot for shows. The sound system is amazing. It sounds very good. There is concrete all over so no standing on grass or mud if it rains! The lighting is soft and easy on the eyes. Centennial Terrace is located in Sylvania, OH. read more

I have seen the following here in just the last 7 years....... .38 special , heart, George thorogood, Alice cooper, get the led out, Kansas, Sheryl crow, disco party, 80s party, Doobie Brothers, 1964 The Tribute. Reasonable drink prices and adequate security make this a safe, fun, outdoor summer venue. The fireworks show around the 4th of July is the bomb. read more

Loved the concert performance by Alison Krause and her warm up act but half way through was literally smoked out by cigarette smoke. Two concerts in one at this venue first and last. read more

Saw Counting Crows here on 16 Jun 12 and was very impressed with the outdoor theatre. The parking was super easy and only cost $5. The facility is really nice with two areas with bathrooms (could use some updating). We had reserved seats but didn't know that we were supposed to enter through a special line to get a wrist band. When we tried to get to our seats they sent us back up front. The seats were typically narrow and close together. Behind the seats were several rows of benches which I thought was pretty neat. Beyond the benches is patio & grass area for general admission seating. We sat off to the right of the stage and didn't have anything blocking our view. I would definitely attend another event there again. read more

Seen Halestorm here in July. Was my first time at centennial terrace. I would definitely go back again. A great venue.

ABSOLUTELY GO HERE IF YOU CAN!! Clean, GREAT environment, KIND staff, LOVE IT!!!! Will look at their line up constantly and will drive the hour and a half to go here rather than anywhere in Michigan. $5 parking - EASY EASY EASY in and out. Fantastic. read more

The place itself was great. A great venue to see a concert. Staff was helpful, bathroom clean, etc. My complaint is about other concert-goers here. I went to see one of my favorites -- Tedeschi Trucks Band (a beautiful mixture of Derek Trucks and Susan Tedeschi). People were furious with us when we wanted to stand to better see the stage. Someone even threw a full water bottle at my friend. If I want to stand then I'm going to stand. I paid $60 for my ticket too, so I'm going to enjoy the show my way. Get over yourself and stay home if you are going to be a bump on a log....this is rock and roll! read more
