When a tour is big enough to play Indiana, this is usually where it lands. Gainbridge Fieldhouse is the state’s primary arena for stadium-scale acts, sitting a few blocks off Monument Circle in downtown Indianapolis, and it doubles as home to the Pacers and the Fever.

What to Expect
Concert capacity runs to roughly 18,000 depending on how the stage is configured, and the room has a better reputation for sightlines than most arenas its size — the seating is steep, which helps. It opened in 1999 as Conseco Fieldhouse, spent a decade as Bankers Life, and took the Gainbridge name in 2021 after a renovation. The architecture is a deliberate nod to old Indiana high school gyms: exposed steel trusses, brick, and a sense of the place being about the game rather than the concourse.
Because it shares a calendar with two pro basketball teams, concerts cluster rather than run continuously — a quiet month usually means the Pacers are home, not that nothing is booked. Downtown parking is plentiful, with tens of thousands of spaces inside a ten-minute walk, and the Virginia Street garage is the closest reliable option. The box office is generally open weekday afternoons.
