STROEDE SPONSORS

The Stroede Center for the Arts once again brings “Entertainment on a Whole New Level!” with an unforgettable 2026-2027 Performance Series.

Our 20^th Anniversary Season will feature concerts in Defiance, OH at the Stroede Center, City parks, and at the historic Defiance Community Auditorium.  We’re bringing an incredible lineup, including the #1 Eagles Tribute “Hotel California,” illusionist Bill Blagg, the return of The Nutcracker with the Fort Wayne Ballet, classical piano, a Christmas concert, and the return of “The Voice” Season 21 winner, Girl Named Tom!

The Summer Season’s popular Music in Your Parks Series features Ohio-based artists. The Mistics kicked off the summer with Motown favorites. Still to come are rock and Americana with the Lee Warren Band, the Latin fusion group, Labra Brothers, and 70’s disco hits by Boogie Fever. We are thrilled to bring this year’s talented artists to Northwest Ohio!

Will you partner with us?  We invite you to attend and to sponsor the Stroede Center events of the coming year. We’d love to give you recognition as a lead supporter of the arts!  Through community partners like you, The Stroede Center has been able to provide enriching and valuable experiences for the people of Defiance and northwest Ohio.
