About Broad Ripple Park

Broad Ripple Park sits on 62 acres along the White River in northeast Indianapolis. A historic recreation hub, the park now hosts a thriving summer concert series through Forty5 in partnership with Indy Parks, featuring venues like Rock the Ruins, The Vogue, Turntable, and The Tobias Theater. This page covers seating and venue details, transportation options, parking guidance, and nearby hotels and restaurants to help you plan a smooth visit.

Whether you’re here for a concert, a family program at the Broad Ripple Park Family Center (opened 2023), or a community event, we’ve got you covered with practical, no-fuss guidance so you can secure your seats and enjoy the show.

Important notes: On-site parking is not available for concerts. Plan to walk, bike via the Monon Trail, or use IndyGo transit. Bike racks are located near the park entrance.
