About HI-FI Indy

Heads Up:

Construction is underway in Fountain Square due to DPW’s storm drain replacement project. Surrounding street closures will impact travel and parking near the venue. We are providing regular updates for our guests on this page.  Check back often as closures and routes will change often. Thanks for your patience.

Highly acclaimed by both fans and artists, HI-FI is celebrated for its exceptional acoustics, earning its reputation as one of the best-sounding venues in the Midwest.

Frequently Asked Questions About HI-FI

Counterfeit Tickets, Brokers & Resellers

To ensure a smooth entry to our shows, please purchase tickets only from our authorized ticketing partner, Tixr. As we recently transitioned from See Tickets to Tixr, there are some current shows with tickets available on both platforms, and we will honor valid tickets from either. Please note the emphasis on valid tickets, as we will not accept counterfeit or unauthorized tickets.

Beware of Third-Party Sellers
We strongly caution against buying tickets from third-party sources like Craigslist, Facebook, StubHub, Vivid Seats, or individual sellers. It is the buyer’s responsibility to verify ticket validity, and we cannot guarantee entry with tickets purchased outside of authorized channels. If counterfeit tickets are presented at the gate, our only option is to deny entry—a difficult decision, but necessary to maintain the integrity of our events.

Social Media Scams
We also recommend avoiding social media posts or comments from individuals claiming to have “2 extra tickets and can’t go.” Many scams involve reselling the same ticket to multiple buyers. If you have any concerns about ticket legitimacy, please reach out to our Box Office for guidance.

What are the age restrictions at this venue?
HI-FI’s age policy varies by event, with most shows open to guests of all ages. Please check the show listing to confirm if your event is all ages, 18+, or 21+. Alcoholic beverages are available for guests 21 and over with a valid, state-issued ID.

Children are welcome during HI-FI shows regardless of age, but due to space limitations, all guests coming to HI-FI shows will need to purchase a ticket.
Venue Entrance
HI-FI’s main entrance and box office are located at 1043 Virginia Ave., Suite 4, in the Murphy Arts Building, right beneath the HI-FI marquee. This address works best for GPS directions to the venue.

Security Screening
Upon arrival, all guests will go through a security screening, which may include bag checks, metal detection, and/or wanding. IDs may also be scanned to verify age for those over 21. Any prohibited or illegal items found will be confiscated, and guests attempting to enter with such items may be denied entry or, if found inside the venue, may be subject to ejection.
What is the camera/photo policy for this venue?

The photo policy is determined by the artist and may vary each night. Generally, HI-FI does not permit professional photography unless pre-approved by the band. For approved photographers, photos are allowed during the first three songs only, with no flash permitted. Please note that the artist, not the venue, controls the photo policy for each show.

To request pre-approval for media credentials, please contact marketing@hifiindy.com at least 48 hours prior to the event.

Can I leave and re-enter the venue?
Yes. Re-entry is permitted for HI-FI shows. Guests may be subject to security screening upon readmission. 
Seating & VIP Options
This show is general admission, standing room only. For a more comfortable experience, a limited number of VIP upgrades with reserved seating are available. Visit our VIP Upgrade page or reach out to us at boxoffice@hifiindy.com for details. 

Can I purchase ear plugs at the venue?

What is your refund policy?

If a show is postponed, ticket holders will be notified via email, and no action is required if you wish to keep your tickets. HI-FI will work to reschedule the show and will provide updates as soon as they are available. If you are unable to attend the new date, refunds will be offered at the original point of purchase for 30 days after the rescheduled date. If you purchased tickets with cash at the box office, please contact our Box Office for instructions on processing your refund.

In the event of a cancelled show, tickets purchased online will be automatically refunded. Please allow 3-5 business days for the refund to appear in your bank account. No action is required unless you 1.) paid cash at our box office, 2.) have a new or different card than the one originally used, or 3.) do not see the refund after 5 business days. For assistance in these cases, please reach out to our Box Office.

Please be mindful when parking at other area businesses. We appreciate their support and want to minimize any impact on their business: No overnight parking, no loitering and no disturbances.

Transportation

Rideshare and Drop-Off

Please note that the ride share drop off and pickup location will be changing during our neighborhoods construction phase.  See the map for the exact location, which is located on Woodlawn across from Bovaconti coffee. Uber and Lyft should have this updated in their systems.  Do not take the detour and try and drop off on St. Patrick.  That section is closed. 

Traffic Advisory

We recommend avoiding travel down St. Patrick St. (in between the HI-FI Annex and St. Patricks Church) on busy show days, as it can become congested with traffic from both directions on this narrow street.

By planning ahead, you can ensure a smoother experience when attending events at our venue.
