Rose Music Center at The Heights
Over the past few months, the Rose Music Center at The Heights, located in Huber Heights, has been slowly announcing the lineup for its impressive 2021 season. So far, 29 shows have been announced. At this point, the venue’s lineup is 98 percent complete with a possibility of a few more shows being added.
Though Rosemarie Moehring, director of marketing at Rose Music Center at The Heights, states that the venue has enjoyed a positive response to the announcement of their 2021 season, it has been a bit difficult to return to normalcy.
“I think just kind of getting back into the groove of things and after being away from it for so long,” Moehring said. “And, honestly, reopening the building after it’s (not) been used in over a year always presents its usual challenges, but nothing has been like out of the ordinary. So, no, everything, knock-on-wood, is pretty seamless, a couple bumps here and there, but nothing of any magnitude.”
Tickets purchased to 2020 shows that were rescheduled will be honored for their new date in 2021.

Fraze Pavilion
In May, Fraze Pavilion announced a full summer lineup boasting headlining acts such as Styx, Trace Adkins and Boyz II Men. At that time, Kettering City Manager Mark Schwieterman told Dayton.com in a previous article that the reopening of the Fraze Pavilion was sure to have an impact on the entire Kettering community.
“The bigger impact was just not having community events last summer,” Schwieterman said. “It had an impact on the mood of the community, not having events where we could get out and socialize. We’re hopeful we’ll be able to offer that this summer.”
Those who purchased tickets to a show that took place during the 2020 season from the Fraze FanFare box office, Etix online or over the phone received a full refund after the season was canceled.
