Fraze Pavilion Tickets

Named after the inventor of the pop-top soda can, Ermal Fraze, the Fraze Pavilion was opened in 1991. The venue is a 4300 seat outdoor amphitheater located in Kettering, Ohio, and is known for hosting favorite performers from all over the globe, though Martin Hamlisch was the first to christen the stage in 1991. Sheryl Crow performed two back to back concerts, which she filmed to use in her C'mon America 2003 DVD. Just outside of the gates of the Fraze Pavilion lies the Lincoln Park Civic Commons, which is home to several local and musical festivals including the Swamp Romp Cajun-Zydeco Festival, Blues Fest, Festival of the Vine, Spass Nacht and Art on the Commons.

What happens if it rains?

You are encouraged to wear weather-appropriate clothing and to bring a blanket. Umbrellas are not permitted inside the Fraze Pavilion for the safety of guests and staff alike. In the event of severe or dangerous weather like hail, lightning, or torrential rains, the pavilion will be evacuated and information will be posted to the venue's social media pages.

Where can I park?

Free parking is available to you in select parking lots surrounding the Fraze Pavilion event. If parking lots fill up, you can park on available side streets where permitted and walk to the venue.

Does Fraze Pavilion seating include wheelchair accessibility?

Yes, wheelchair accessible seating can be found in the Plaza, Orchestra, Lawn and Terrace sections of the venue. Drop-off and pick-up areas for special needs guests are available on Lincoln Park Boulevard east and west of the pavilion. Limited handicap parking is also available to guests with special needs, but please arrive with ample time to spare as spaces are filled on a first come first served basis.

Can I bring a chair?

You are encouraged to bring a blanket to sit on because lawn chairs, beach chairs and personal stadium seats are not allowed in the pavilion. Seatbacks are available for rent for $12; make sure to request this option when purchasing your ticket as these are also rented on a first come first served basis. No chairs with exposed metal, plastic or wood are allowed into the venue; however, you are welcome to bring in your own seatbacks or back supports that do not lift you up off of the ground.

What is the photography policy at the Fraze Pavilion?

The photography policy differs from one event to the next, so you will want to check the event-specific policy when purchasing your Fraze Pavilion tickets. Typically, point and click cameras are allowed as long as you are not using a professional lens and are not filming the event.

Can I pack a cooler to bring into the Fraze Pavilion?

You are only permitted to bring one factory-sealed bottle of water into the venue unless you purchase food and drink from Ernie's Concessions outside of the venue.

What hotels are nearby?
