Upcoming Sports Events

Columbus makes it easy to get in the game.

With three professional sports teams and stadiums in the Arena District, you’re never far from the action. Along a half-mile stretch of Nationwide Boulevard, you’ll find the Columbus Blue Jackets (NHL), the Columbus Crew (MLS) and the Columbus Clippers, the Triple-A affiliate of the Cleveland Guardians (MLB). Early for a game? Take advantage of the neighborhood’s DORA (Designated Outdoor Refreshment Area) and grab a drink from designated restaurants.

Columbus does college sports, too. The Ohio State Buckeyes’ 36 Division I sports bring impassioned crowds from around the state and the country to home games in the University District. Whether you’re a first-timer or a longtime fan, tailgates and games have something for everyone.
