About Chelsies
Chelsies was a intimate live-music club in Columbus, Ohio, known for its raw, hands-on rock shows and a dedicated local following. Opened in 1988 at 980 N. High Street, the venue hosted a range of acts during its run through the late 1990s before closing in December 1999. Notable moments included performances by Insane Clown Posse on December 5, 1996, and Watershed around September 19, 1997. While the doors are no longer open and there is no public record of a renamed use for the site, Chelsies remains part of Columbus’ early-venue history for fans and historians alike.
