Frequently Asked Questions
When is Barry Manilow performing at Nationwide Arena in Columbus?
Barry Manilow brings “Manilow: The Last Columbus Concert” to Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio on Sunday, January 18, 2026, with the show scheduled to start at 7:00 pm. This is billed as his last full Columbus concert on “The Last Concerts” tour, so it is a one‑night‑only chance for local fans to see him at this arena.
Where is Nationwide Arena located and what is the venue like?
Nationwide Arena is located at 200 West Nationwide Boulevard in the Arena District of downtown Columbus, surrounded by restaurants, bars, and other entertainment options within easy walking distance. It is a large, modern arena that hosts NHL games and major concerts, with multiple seating levels, big video boards, and strong sound, giving Barry Manilow’s show a big‑event feel.
What time do doors open and when should I arrive?
The concert is scheduled for 7:00 pm, and venue guidance indicates that doors for major events typically open 60–90 minutes before showtime. Arriving about an hour early gives you time to park, walk through the Arena District, pass security checks, and find your seat without rushing, especially on a busy Sunday evening downtown.
How much do Barry Manilow tickets cost in Columbus?
Ticket marketplaces list entry‑level prices for Barry Manilow at Nationwide Arena starting around $53–$58 for upper‑level seats, with an average price near $170–$180 depending on demand. Floor and lower‑bowl sections closer to the stage cost more, so your total price will mainly depend on how close you want to sit and whether you choose standard seats or any premium options.
How can I get cheap tickets for the Barry Manilow concert in Columbus?
To get cheaper tickets, target higher‑level sections and upper‑corner seats, which are usually priced at or near the minimum and still offer good views in a modern arena. Compare prices on several major ticket sites, sort by “lowest price,” avoid VIP or club packages if you are budget‑minded, and keep an eye out for late price drops from resellers, especially if you are flexible and can buy closer to the concert date.
What are the best seats at Nationwide Arena for this concert?
For the best overall experience, many fans prefer lower‑bowl side sections near center, which give a clear, front‑facing view of the stage while keeping you relatively close to Barry Manilow and the big screens. If you want to balance cost with a good view, look at upper‑level sections that face the stage head‑on rather than behind or extreme angles; these seats are typically cheaper than floor or prime lower‑level locations but still provide a satisfying concert perspective.
What is the bag policy and security like at Nationwide Arena?
Nationwide Arena enforces a strict bag policy: bags larger than about 14 x 14 x 6 inches are not allowed, and only clear bags within that size and small clutches under roughly 6.5 x 4.5 inches are generally permitted, with medical bags allowed but subject to search. There is no on‑site bag storage, so arriving with no bag or only a compliant small or clear bag will help you move quickly through security and avoid being turned away at the doors.
What parking and transportation options are available for the Columbus concert?
Parking for Nationwide Arena events is available in multiple nearby garages and surface lots throughout the Arena District, and event partners offer pre‑purchase parking options on the concert info page. To save time and stress, consider reserving a garage spot in advance, arriving early to avoid congestion, or using rideshare services, which can drop you near the arena without needing to park at all.
How long will the Barry Manilow concert last and what can I expect?
Promotional materials describe an evening of Barry Manilow performing his greatest hits, which typically means a full concert of around two hours including possible encore. Fans can expect a set packed with classics like “Mandy,” “I Write the Songs,” “Looks Like We Made It,” “Can’t Smile Without You,” and “Copacabana (At the Copa),” along with his trademark storytelling and a farewell tone tailored to this final Columbus show.
Are there presales, fan‑club tickets, or VIP options for the Columbus show?
The Columbus date appears on Barry Manilow’s “The Last Concerts” schedule with Ticketmaster as the primary seller and additional options through partners like AXS and the tour promoter. To keep costs down, use any available presale codes to buy early at face value, compare standard seats with any VIP or add‑on options before upgrading, and if your priority is cheap tickets, stick to regular upper‑ or mid‑level sections instead of paying extra for premium packages.
