Marathon Center for the Performing Arts — Attraction in Findlay

My first time attending an event here. Im newer to Findlay and didn't realize we have a theater. I was pleasantly surprised. It's a decent size. Close to a thousand seats. Sat in the balcony and could see and hear great. I loved how you can pick out your seats online. Pricing for most events are extremely reasonable. Free parking. Concession prices were pretty reasonable. Bathrooms were well maintained. It was a bit chaotic getting to your seats. I think they should probably have tickets checked when you come in. Having tickets checked on the 2nd level for balcony seating requires a sizeable line and people stuck on stairs. If you are carrying things or have balance issues that could be a little dicey . All in all good experience. Will...

BRIDES BOOK THIS VENUE! 10/10. What an amazing experience we had at MCPA for our wedding reception. Where to start- AMAZING facility that is beyond beautiful and so clean and affordable! Chloe is so organized, has great attention to detail and is somehow 1 step ahead of you at all times. We have had the most compliments about the amazing bar staff and alcohol selection and just overall how smoothly our night ran. Free and spacious parking, large bathrooms, space for caterers, table and chairs included, gorgeous lighting and overall so many little things that really make or break weddings. We can't thank MCPA enough for being so flexible and accommodating! A true hidden gem in the wedding...

We do love the Center in all of its glory and have attended many of the scheduled offerings. However, we attended a free concert today with another couple that we had invited arriving shortly after the doors opened. What a fiasco that was. The tickets only saved you a seat but, not a designated seat. Having unreserved seating forced our guests to sit separately from us as many people were saving seats for their yet-to-arrive friends. Trying to locate 4 seats together was a farce.

Free concerts should have designated ticketed seats to mitigate this issue and frustration. Please give some serious consideration to this idea. Thank you for all that you do for...
