Located on the West Bank of Cleveland’s bustling Flats nightlife district, Globe Iron is the newest multi-purpose event venue, featuring a 1,200-capacity indoor concert hall space accompanied by a beautiful courtyard for year-round entertainment.

Once home to the Globe Iron Works Foundry built in 1853, this historic complex and venue’s namesake is representative of the hardworking, rich culture of Cleveland. AEG Presents has carefully rehabilitated the legendary landmark while making sure to preserve the venue’s historic charm. AEG Presents will operate and exclusively book the venue’s programming, which will include a diverse line up of musical genres and special events, bringing an additional 150 events to the city.

“Cleveland has been a focus for AEG Presents since renovating the iconic Agora 6 years ago. With a design focused on the best live experience, Globe Iron will be a must-play venue in the region,” commented Jason Rogalewski, Senior Vice President of AEG Presents Great Lakes, “It will check all the boxes with state-of-the-art sound and lighting, perfect sight lines, and world-class amenities for both fans and artists, all within a unique setting that ensures a truly great experience and supports our goal of bringing more tours to Cleveland.”

Globe Iron will also specialize in bespoke events for corporate functions, weddings, conferences, award shows, fundraisers and so much more. This newly renovated venue features an open-air courtyard, a stylish cocktail area, and a stunning reception space. Globe Iron is the perfect venue for any celebration or special event.

Executive Vice President of Jacobs Entertainment Inc. Patrick McKinley added, “We are thrilled to continue our strong relationship with AEG Presents. Jacobs Pavilion has been a great success, and we look forward to the same with Globe Iron for years to come.”

AEG Presents furthers their commitment in bringing great live events to Cleveland, which currently books and operates the legendary Agora Theatre (2,000 capacity), and esteemed Jacobs Pavilion (4,900 capacity), Cleveland’s premiere covered, outdoor amphitheater.

Globe Iron will begin to announce its programming later this year.
