Celeste Center

Celeste Center is a 10,200-seat multipurpose arena, part of the Ohio Expo Center and State Fairgrounds in Columbus, Ohio. The building, named for former Ohio Governor and United States Ambassador to India Richard F. Celeste, is used for concerts, trade shows, banquets, and sporting events.

The arena contains convert|60000|sqft|m2|abbr=on. of unobstructed floor space and two stages, one a convert|75|ft|m|sing=on-by-32-foot permanent stage and a portable stage measuring up to convert|60|ft|m by convert|32|ft|m. It also features air conditioning, an excellent sound system, dressing rooms with showers, large rest rooms, office space and concession stands.

The Celeste Center is a rather low roofed arena for its capacity (53 feet tall). When used for concerts, the seating is set up amphitheater style.

In 1999, Christina Aguilera performed to a sold out crowd as part of her very first concert tour. However, it was marketed that she was playing the Ohio State Fair because the fair was occurring during the time of her concert.
