About Fraze Pavilion

Fraze Pavilion is an outdoor amphitheatre located at 695 Lincoln Park Blvd in Kettering, Ohio. Opened in 1991, it is owned and operated by the City of Kettering and has a capacity of approximately 4,300 guests across its covered reserved pavilion seating and open lawn areas. The venue is also known as The Fraze and sits within Lincoln Park, giving it a park-like setting that works naturally for warm-weather performances and community gatherings.

The venue is a cornerstone of Kettering's summer cultural calendar and is regarded as one of the premier outdoor concert venues in the Dayton, Ohio metro area. Its seasonal calendar typically runs from late spring through early fall and includes national touring concerts across rock, classic rock, country, pop, R&B, and oldies, along with comedy, tribute acts, community events, family programming, and a Friday Night Concerts series with low-cost general admission.

Named for local businessman and philanthropist Lowell "Pete" Fraze, whose support helped establish the venue, Fraze Pavilion is known for its intimate scale, covered pavilion seats near the stage, and open lawn seating in a community-oriented outdoor setting.

Location & Transportation

Fraze Pavilion is located at 695 Lincoln Park Blvd, Kettering, OH 45429 — within Lincoln Park in the Dayton-area city of Kettering.

Driving and Parking: Fraze Pavilion is primarily reached by car. On-site and nearby lot parking is available around Lincoln Park, but lots and surrounding park roads can fill before event start for popular shows, so arriving early is the best way to reduce stress before showtime.

Transit: Greater Dayton RTA serves the broader Kettering area, though direct public transit service to the venue is minimal. For most guests, driving or rideshare will be the most practical way to reach the pavilion.

Rideshare: Rideshare drop-off and pickup are practical options for events at Fraze Pavilion. After sellout shows, expect some waiting time as traffic clears the Lincoln Park area.

Nearby Accommodation: Lodging is available throughout Kettering and nearby Dayton, including hotels along I-675 and throughout the Miami Valley area within a short drive of the venue.

Venue Navigation

Fraze Pavilion has a straightforward outdoor layout built around the stage, with covered reserved pavilion seating closest to the performance area and open lawn seating behind and around it. Understanding the pavilion-and-lawn setup before you arrive helps you choose the right ticket type and plan for walking through the park grounds.

Entrances and Access: Main entry is through the Lincoln Park grounds, leading guests toward the pavilion seating and lawn areas.

Seating Levels: The venue has two primary seating areas: covered reserved pavilion seating nearest the stage and open lawn seating behind and around the covered area. Reserved pavilion seats provide assigned locations under the roof, while the lawn offers a more flexible outdoor viewing experience.

Accessibility: Accessible seating and services are available at Fraze Pavilion. Guests who need specific accommodations can contact the venue in advance for assistance.

Getting to Your Section: Staff and signage guide guests from the park entrance to reserved and lawn areas. Because the setting includes outdoor walkways and grass, comfortable footwear is advisable, especially for lawn seating.

Dining Options

Inside Fraze Pavilion

Fraze Pavilion offers on-site concessions during events, including food and beverages. Alcohol is also available during events. For popular shows, visiting concessions before the performance begins can help reduce time spent in lines once the crowd is fully inside.

Outside the Venue — Kettering

Dining options are available throughout Kettering and nearby areas. Restaurants near the Town & Country shopping area and along Far Hills Avenue are practical choices before or after a show at Fraze Pavilion.

Fraze Pavilion maintains security and venue policies that are updated regularly and may vary by event. Before attending, reviewing the current policy on the venue's official website is strongly recommended.

How Much Do Tickets to Fraze Pavilion Cost?

Fraze Pavilion ticket prices vary significantly depending on the type of event, the artist, seating section, and demand — which is what you'd expect from a venue that hosts everything from low-cost Friday Night Concerts to high-demand national headliners.

Friday Night Concerts and community shows can be among the most affordable events at the venue, with general admission pricing approximately $10–$15 for the Friday Night Concerts series.

Mid-tier reserved concerts typically have moderate reserved and lawn pricing. Lawn seating is often the most accessible price point, while covered pavilion seats cost more because they place fans closer to the stage and under the roof.

High-demand national headliners can reach higher reserved pricing, with marquee acts pushing the best pavilion seats into premium levels. Performer popularity, event type, seat location, and overall demand are the main price drivers.

Buying earlier generally secures better seat selection and pricing for popular shows, especially as inventory narrows and the best remaining pavilion and lawn options move closer to event day.

Fraze Pavilion Seating Guide

Fraze Pavilion has a simple but important seating layout: covered reserved pavilion seats sit nearest the stage, while open general-admission lawn seating extends behind and around the covered area. Choosing between the pavilion and the lawn shapes your view, comfort, weather exposure, and overall show experience.

Best Seats at Fraze Pavilion

• Best value: Lawn seating is typically the most affordable option at Fraze Pavilion. It offers a relaxed, open-air concert experience and is especially strong for fans who want a budget-friendly way to enjoy the show.
• Closest to the action: Front reserved pavilion rows directly facing the stage place you nearest to the performance and provide the most immediate concert experience.
• Best overall experience: Reserved pavilion seats under the roof offer the strongest combination of sightlines, proximity to the stage, and weather protection.
• General admission: Lawn seating is general admission, and select shows, including the Friday Night Concerts series, are general admission throughout. This setup gives guests festival-style flexibility within the designated general-admission areas.

The map lets you compare sections side by side, check row depth and distance from the stage, and see real-time pricing for what's currently available — all before committing to a purchase.

Can I See Where My Seats Are?

Yes. The interactive seat map on BoxOfficeTicketSales.com shows your exact section and row placement before you buy. Use it to understand your position in the venue, your distance from the stage, and whether you're in the covered reserved pavilion seating or on the open general-admission lawn — so the tickets you choose match exactly what you're looking for on event night.

Getting Ready for Your Fraze Pavilion Event

Once your tickets are confirmed, a few practical preparations make your visit run significantly smoother — especially at an outdoor venue like this where parking, weather, and lawn seating can all affect the experience.

• Download your tickets before you leave. Save your tickets to your phone's wallet or screenshot them before departing so you're ready at the gate without needing a signal.
• Charge your phone fully. Digital ticketing is standard, and your phone is your entry. A portable battery pack is worth having for a full evening.
• Arrive early. Give yourself extra time for parking in Lincoln Park and entry, especially for popular shows when lots can fill before showtime.
• Wear the right footwear. Fraze Pavilion is an outdoor venue with park grounds, walkways, and lawn seating, so comfortable shoes suited to grass and walking are a smart choice.
• Dress in layers. Outdoor conditions can include heat, sun, rain, and evening temperature swings. The pavilion roof covers reserved seats, but the lawn is open to the weather, so check the forecast and dress for conditions.
• Build extra time into your transit plan. Popular shows can create heavier traffic around Lincoln Park, and early arrival gives you more time to park and get through entry.
• Check the bag policy in advance. Reviewing the venue's guidelines before packing prevents delays at security.
