Other Events
The University of Dayton Arena is the largest indoor arena between Cincinnati and Columbus, Ohio, and as a result it is often a regular stop for concert tours. Elton John, Aerosmith, Rush, Bob Seger, George Strait, Kenny Chesney, Usher, Lupe Fiasco, and other performers have performed at this arena. The arena's location near downtown Dayton makes it a regular stop for WWE Wrestling. UD Arena has also been host to the Winter Guard International color guard and indoor percussion championships since 2005, and sporadically prior to that. UD Arena hosted the Royal Hanneford Circus for most of the 1990s and has hosted the Cirque du Soleil in recent years. It also hosts Stars on Ice annually.

Famous quotes containing the word events:
“One thing that makes art different from life is that in art things have a shape ... it allows us to fix our emotions on events at the moment they occur, it permits a union of heart and mind and tongue and tear.”
—Marilyn French (b. 1929)
“By many a legendary tale of violence and wrong, as well as by events which have passed before their eyes, these people have been taught to look upon white men with abhorrence.... I can sympathize with the spirit which prompts the Typee warrior to guard all the passes to his valley with the point of his levelled spear, and, standing upon the beach, with his back turned upon his green home, to hold at bay the intruding European.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
