Tarble Arena

Welcome to Carthage College's concert and event production webpage. Our goal is to continue to bring world-class entertainment events to Carthage College in Southeastern Wisconsin. We have been successful over the past several years at hosting large concerts and events at a small liberal arts institution located in the Chicago-Milwaukee metro corridor.

Carthage College has 2,250 full-time students and draws heavily from the Chicago and Milwaukee suburbs. The Tarble Center opened in 2001 and has already played host to artists such as Dave Matthews, John Mayer, Bob Dylan, and The Fray. Additionally, a number of comedians have also played the venue, including Dave Chappelle, Kevin Nealon, and Darrel Hammond. All of these shows were sell-outs and extremely successful events by every measure. Our experience makes us sophisticated enough to be able to handle all of the requests and needs of production and tour staff. Our size and personal touch means that we are able to focus on making the experience as hassle free and professional as possible in all areas of the event planning and production. We look for special events that are exciting and meaningful to our student population and the local communities.
