Elm Street Plaza
- Park
- Cincinnati
Elm Street Plaza is a landscaped outdoor gathering space beside Cincinnati’s convention center.

Green space, public art and a pavilion support community programs in the city’s Fountain District, with activities changing throughout the year.
The photograph shows the actual plaza shortly after its 2025 opening. Consult the current calendar for concerts, classes and seasonal attractions. Winter skating has its own operating dates, admission and rental arrangements; a plaza visit does not automatically include rink access. Water features also operate seasonally. Respect private bookings and temporary event layouts, and use the plaza’s public pedestrian approaches.
Visitor details reviewed October 26, 2026. Check official visitor information for current access, admission, and operating arrangements. View on OpenStreetMap.
