About Hoosier Dome

The Hoosier Dome, better known as the RCA Dome after naming rights were acquired in 1994, sits at the heart of downtown Indianapolis. Opened in 1984 and eventually demolished in 2008, this indoor domed stadium hosted major events from NFL games featuring the Indianapolis Colts to iconic moments like WrestleMania VIII. Today, visitors can still explore the site’s legacy as part of Indianapolis’ rich sports and event history, with nearby venues and services supporting fans and visitors.

Whether you’re researching for a historical perspective or planning a visit to the area, this page covers seating information, parking, transportation, and nearby hotels and dining options. We’ll point you to trusted affiliate partners for accommodations and dining to help you secure your plans with ease.

Location matters when you’re in downtown Indianapolis. The Hoosier Dome was located at 100 South Capitol Avenue, a central hub that offered extensive parking options around the Indiana Convention Center area and accessible transit via IndyGo. While the arena no longer stands, the footprint contributed to the expansion of the Indiana Convention Center and the opening of Lucas Oil Stadium as the Colts’ home in 2008. For fans and visitors, the area remains a focal point for sports history, events, and a vibrant dining and hotel scene that serves travelers year-round.

We’ve highlighted practical details to help you plan: multi-event seating configurations varied by event, with capacities ranging roughly from 60,000 to mid-50,000s depending on the year; parking options were available around venue events and varied by policy. Transit services offered by IndyGo provided convenient downtown options. This page also links to affiliated hotel and restaurant partners to streamline your arrangements for a visit to the broader downtown Indianapolis area.
