151 Main Street in downtown Wadsworth, Ohio, on the Wadsworth Square campus alongside the Celestia Theater and Flame Backstage Grille & Bar. It sits between I-71 and I-77, about four miles south of I-76, which puts Medina, Norton, Barberton, Rittman, and the west side of Akron within an easy drive. Guests park downtown and walk to the door.

Corporate events and conferences, banquets and luncheons, birthdays and private parties, markets and expos, and community gatherings and fundraisers. The Event Center does not host weddings. If your event is not on that list, ask, because the room is flexible on purpose.

Up to roughly 4,200 square feet, with room for up to 250 guests. The exact count varies by event layout, since a seated dinner, a theater-style presentation, and a vendor market each use the floor differently. Tell us your guest count and our events team will tell you which configurations work.

That is the point of the space. The floor starts open and gets configured around your event: dinner rounds, theater rows, classroom tables, vendor booths, a dance floor, a presentation area, or a combination across one day. We build the plan with you rather than handing you a fixed diagram.

Every request is reviewed personally by our events team. They confirm whether the date is open, answer your questions, and walk through layout and details. Nothing is booked and nothing is charged by asking. Your date is held once an agreement and deposit are complete, and you decide after you have the information.

Flame Backstage Grille & Bar is part of the Wadsworth Square campus. Catering and bar arrangements are confirmed with our events team when they review your date, so tell us what your event needs and they will walk you through the options.

Yes, and it is one of the best reasons to hold an event here. The 900-seat Celestia Theater hosts concerts, comedy, and live performances year-round. A company dinner, fundraiser, or celebration can be built around a performance next door. Mention it in your request and our team will look at the theater calendar around your date.

Accessible arrangements are part of every planning conversation, and the event floor is at ground level. Tell us what your guests need when you send your date and our events team will confirm the specifics for the building.
