Fort Wayne, Indiana (February 25, 2026) – The Allen County War Memorial Coliseum is looking forward to an exciting and eventful couple of days with their upcoming shows while reminding guests and members of the community to plan for additional travel time on Coliseum Boulevard and Parnell Avenue for Thursday, February 26 through Saturday, February 28.

Beginning on Thursday, if you need home and garden inspiration, the Memorial Coliseum is excited to welcome back the Fort Wayne Home & Garden Show that will take place in the Expo Center, open from 11am to 8pm. If a lighthearted time full of laughter is what you are seeking, come join us for comedian Bert Kreischer’s performance in the Arena at 7pm.

On Friday, the Home & Garden Show continues from 11am to 8pm and the Fort Wayne Komets host the Cincinnati Cyclones in the Arena at 7:30pm.

On Saturday, the Home & Garden Show is from 10am to 8pm, with another Komet Hockey game versus the Wheeling Nailers at 7:30pm.

Traffic is expected as guests exit the Home & Garden Show and enter for Bert Kreischer on Thursday, and the hockey games Friday and Saturday.

Guests attending the events should allow extra time for travel on the roadways leading to the Memorial Coliseum parking lot. Members of the community not attending the events are encouraged join us, but if great hockey, home improvement, or laughter is not on their agenda, they are encouraged to seek alternate routes of travel on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evening.

Tickets are still available for all events at the MidWest America Ticket Office and Ticketmaster.com. We look forward to seeing everyone!
