The new site will sit on nearly 20 acres, which will offer more space for live music and entertainment. The 5,000-sqft project will be on the riverbank across from from the South Drive-In Theater, which will allow eight miles of canoeing along the Scioto River.
Future plans may include a restaurant. Until then, food trucks will be available on-site.
Construction will begin in spring 2024 and reach completion by late 2025.
Can’t wait for the new location? Currently, Rambling House North is located at 310 E. Hudson St. The 2,000-sqft music venue is known for its local craft sodas.
