CLEVELAND — We’re getting our first look at proposed plans for Cosm Cleveland, which is described as “a pioneering immersive entertainment and hospitality venue” that will anchor Bedrock’s new mixed-use Rock Block development downtown along Prospect Avenue East, East 4th Street and Huron Road East.

“Through Shared Reality, Cosm brings people together by merging a stadium-like atmosphere with the energy of the crowd and state-of-the-art visuals,” according to a press release. “Spanning approximately 64,000 square feet and three stories, Cosm Cleveland will feature two primary programmatic elements: The Dome and The Hall, with elevated food and beverage service, outdoor seating and premium club space.”

Cosm, Bedrock and Rock Entertainment Group released three proposed renderings of the new immersive sports and entertainment venue on Tuesday morning, which you can see below.

“Expanding on the foundational design of its first four venues, Cosm Cleveland will include a 12K+ LED dome with a complementary hi-resolution wall-to-wall LED display, while still highlighting unique characteristics that reflect Cleveland’s vibrant community,” according to a Cosm press release from July. “The venue will be built and designed in partnership with Bedrock and multi-disciplinary architectural firm ROSSETTI.”

Pending approval, Cosm Cleveland construction is anticipated to begin in early 2026, according to their press release.

Cleveland will become Cosm’s fifth venue nationwide.

“We’re proud to bring Cosm to a city with such a strong sense of identity and passion,” said Jeb Terry, President and CEO of Cosm. “This venue will be more than just a destination; it will be a new way for Clevelanders to come together and experience the moments that matter most, in Shared Reality. Located immediately across from Rocket Arena, Cosm Cleveland will add to the energy of game day and big events, and activate Bedrock’s Rock Block development with live sports, experiential cinema and entertainment, and cultural offerings year-round.”

The July press release said programming at Cosm Cleveland will include: 

• A slate of live sports offerings featuring NCAA Football, NFL, UFC, NBA, MLB, WWE, NHL, Premier League (EPL) and international soccer, Men’s and Women’s NCAA Basketball, Tennis, Golf, and more; building on official partnerships with leagues and broadcasters including FOX Sports, ESPN, NBC Sports, TNT Sports, CBS Sports, Amazon and more.
• Experiential cinema, expanding on the heels of Cosm unveiling the world’s first-ever cinematic presentation in Shared Reality of The Matrix, in partnership with Little Cinema and Warner Bros. Pictures.
• Immersive art experiences from members of the Cosm Studios Creator Program, including world-renowned photographer and filmmaker Bo Bridges and his surfing film Big Wave; filmmaker, director and co-founder of Planetary Collective Guy Reid; acclaimed composer and new media artist Ricardo Romaneiro; global artist and DJ Chris Holmes; award-winning new media artist Nancy Baker Cahill; and additional creators and studios to join the program in the future.
• Cirque du Soleil’s timeless production “O.”
