Globe Iron, a new concert venue in Cleveland's West Bank of the Flats, will officially be open by May 2025, according to a news release.
The 1,200-capacity indoor concert hall has announced its opening shows, which mix metal, rock, indie and folk offerings. The earliest announced show is on May 2, featuring Cleveland-based band How We Feel.
The new AEG venue takes over the space once home to Globe Iron Works Foundry in the 1800s, and aims to host 150 unique events per year — plus private events like weddings, conferences and fundraisers.
“Cleveland has been a focus for AEG Presents since renovating the iconic Agora six years ago. With a design focused on the best live experience, Globe Iron will be a must-play venue in the region,” says Jason Rogalewski, senior vice president of AEG Presents Great Lakes, in a news release. “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.”
AEG also operates the Agora, the historic Cleveland venue that it took over in 2017 and renovated. In 2022, the concert promotion company also took over operations at Jacobs Pavilion in a 10-year agreement.
“We are thrilled to continue our strong relationship with AEG Presents," says Patrick McKinley, executive vice president of Jacobs Entertainment Inc., in a news release. "Jacobs Pavilion has been a great success, and we look forward to the same with Globe Iron for years to come.”
