DAYTON, OHIO
DISCOVER THE ARCADE
THE ARCADE IS BACK!
This is not the Arcade of the past, this is the Arcade of the future.
The newly revitalized Arcade is not a shopping mall, a food court, or a public square.
It is a center of continuing cycles of community members doing amazing things. It is a space where tomorrow’s leaders and dreamers can exist in a center that encourages a continued cycle of inspiration and realization.

PLAN YOUR VISIT TO THE ARCADE
A lot has changed about the Arcade since the last time you may have visited 30+ years ago!
It is important to plan your visit to the Arcade in advance and check with individual tenants to see their hours of operation. Not all areas of the Arcade are currently open to the public, including the Arcade's Rotunda event space.
