This unique venue has been an absolute blessing to our company, and we’re incredibly grateful for the opportunity. A big thank you to the fans, artists, neighbors, and partners who make it all possible!,” said Josh Baker, Co-Owner & CEO, HI-FI and MOKB Presents.
Over the course of the last four years, HI-FI Annex has emerged as one of Indy’s mainstay outdoor concert venues hosting major acts like Band of Horses, Future Islands, The Breeders, Shakey Graves, Wynonna Judd, American Football, Circle Jerks, Larry Fleet, Broken Social Scene, Bahamas, The Toadies, Trampled By Turtles, Allen Stone, Houndmouth and many more. 2024 is set to be the busiest, most musically diverse season yet with featured performances from: Atmosphere, Afghan Whigs & The Church, Built To Spill, Nolan Taylor, G Flip, Amyl & The Sniffers, Pokey LaFarge, Sammy Rae & The Friends and many more to be announced.

HI-FI Annex is open to fans and families of all ages and features experience amenities including a snack shack, two full bars for 21+ guests, and food from Easy Rider Diner.
“Originally created out of necessity, the Annex transformed over the last three years as a catalyst for tourism and visitor traffic to our neighborhood and played a huge role in the growth of the Fountain Square music scene. No one deserves more thanks than the amazing fans that drive the demand for these concerts, and the hard working team that puts them all together,“ said Justin Jones, President Fountain Fletcher District Association.
