So You Want to Party Like it's 2024 (In Indianapolis)!
Indy, buckle up, because this weekend is shaping up to be wilder than a room full of toddlers with pixie sticks! Whether you're a craft beer connoisseur, a closet mariachi singer, or just someone who enjoys watching grown men whack a tiny white ball around a field (no judgement!), there's something for everyone.
What Events Are In Indianapolis This Weekend |
Hitting the High Notes:
- MOKB Presents @ HI-FI Annex BoDeans (New Date): Need a dose of 80s nostalgia? The BoDeans are bringing their jangly guitars and soulful harmonies to the Hi-Fi Annex. Be prepared to sing along to "Closer to Free" at the top of your lungs (and maybe shed a tear, we won't judge).
- Viernes Cultural - Latin Night: Calling all salsa dancers and mojito enthusiasts! Get your groove on at Viernes Cultural, a celebration of all things Latino. This is your chance to unleash your inner Shakira (or Ricky Martin, no judgement here either).
QuickTip: Repeat difficult lines until they’re clear.
Festival Fun:
- IBE SUMMER CELEBRATION: This Indianapolis Business Expo is your one-stop shop for networking, free samples (because who doesn't love free stuff?), and, let's be honest, escaping the summer heat into glorious air conditioning.
- Marion County Fair: Deep-fried Oreos, prize-winning pigs, and enough rides to make you dizzy (in a good way, hopefully). The Marion County Fair is a classic summer experience, perfect for families or anyone who wants to relive their childhood (minus the awkward middle school phase).
- Irvington Pride: Celebrate love, diversity, and maybe score a killer rainbow tie-dye shirt at Irvington Pride. This vibrant neighborhood festival is a great way to show your support and have a blast at the same time.
Bonus: Not-So-Secret Spots:
Note: Skipping ahead? Don’t miss the middle sections.
- Back 9 Golf & Entertainment Summer Concert Series: Who says mini golf and live music don't mix? Back 9 is offering the perfect combo for anyone who wants to channel their inner rockstar (terrible singing voice optional).
- Every Sun The Sunday Show (Free!): Feeling a little light on cash? Head to Black Circle Brewing for some free, live music and good vibes. Just be sure to tip the performers, they deserve it!
Remember: This is just a taste of what Indy has to offer. So put on your dancing shoes, grab your sunscreen (it's gonna be a scorcher!), and get ready for a weekend you won't forget (or maybe you will, thanks to all those deep-fried Oreos).
