The Friesian Empire Events Center was originally founded in 2002 and formerly known as The Friesian Empire and Equine Center. It was described as the largest Equestrian Facility in Franklin County and one of the largest Equestrian facilities in all of Central Ohio. Horse enthusiasts flew in from around the world for horse Shows, horse clinics, horse auctions and Friesian horse inspections. The owner wanted to expand the facility to something that could include more than just horse owners, but people who appreciate the serene setting of a horse farm for their special event. The conversion process has taken years to complete (we are hoping to have everything 100% completed and ready for weddings and events by Summer/Fall of 2025. The property has nearly 50 very scenic and wooded acres with 2 large ponds and thousands of feet of 4 rail white vinyl horse fencing. Our venue consists of approximately 42,000 SF of indoor entertainment areas, not to mention the outdoor entertaining areas! Our grounds and buildings are equipped with numerous security cameras.

The Madison is Cleveland’s premier event space. Built in the early 1900s, The Madison initially housed the Republic Brass Company. After years of disuse, the 22,000 square foot warehouse caught the eye of a Cleveland-based event professional who fell in love with the structure’s propensity to merge historic industrialism with modern minimalism as an event space. In 2018, The Madison officially opened for business in the growing and diverse Midtown district to accommodate Cleveland’s top weddings, celebrations, and corporate events. At The Madison, our mission is to cultivate human connection and life’s treasured moments. This informs everything about The Madison, from the aesthetic to the design and accommodations. The white brick walls, twenty foot ceilings, and open layout promote creativity and empower you to design the event of your dreams. On-site tables and chairs minimize event-related decisions and costs. The one story floor plan and loading docks facilitate stress-free load-in. Getting-Ready Rooms, designed by Restoration Hardware and filled with natural light, allow you to capture stunning images before you walk down the aisle. The large outdoor patio enables guests to celebrate under the stars, while just minutes from downtown. We even attended to small details, like fourteen beautiful new bathrooms, a catering preparation area, air-conditioning and heating, track-lighting, and ample electrical outlets, to make your event feel as comfortable as possible. Don’t let The Madison’s minimalist style fool you; we thought of everything!
