The Ohio Star Ball will be held at the Columbus Convention Center and the adjoining Hyatt Regency Columbus hotel. This is in downtown Columbus, just north of the State Capital Building and just south of the Ohio State University. It is also right next to an area called the Short North, which is an area rich in restaurants, shops, and other businesses. A good resource for fine dining in Columbus can be found at the Dine Originals Columbus web site. Please check this web site out for great places to eat in Columbus.
For the Friday and Saturday Ohio Star Ball events, the beautiful Battelle Grand Ballroom will be used. This is in addition to the Regency Ballroom and other areas that are used for events during the week. The Battelle Grand Ballroom is now one of the largest ballrooms in the midwest. We are looking forward to using this fantastic venue for all future Ohio Star Ball competitions.
