INDY JAZZ FEST IS A RAIN OR SHINE EVENT


Right now the forecast calls for a chance of light rain on Saturday night, we expect the Grand Finale Indy Jazz Fest presented by Citizens Energy Group to proceed as planned.

Gates open at 3pm and the music will start at 4pm.

Pavilion seats are COVERED, lawn seats are not. - SEE MAP

WE HAVE MADE SOME ADJUSTMENTS:

We have disabled the uncovered "Lawn Seating" option and modified prices to offer the same pricing as the "Lawn Seating" in certain Pavilion sections.

If you purchased "Lawn Seating" before 9/26, you will have the opportunity to upgrade to Pavilion seats on-site at the Everwise Box Office on the north side of the White River State Park Visitor Center. Upgrades are also available via the Live Nation app.

We will post further updates, here and our social media channels on Facebook and Instagram.

As always, the safety of our guests and performers is our top priority.

The task(s) performed by the dog must be directly related to the individual’s disability.


    We require, consistent with the ADA, that service animals must be harnessed, leashed, or tethered, unless these devices interfere with the service animal’s work or the individual’s disability prevents him or her from using these devices. Individuals who cannot use such devices must maintain control of the animal through voice, signal, or other effective methods.
