Hendricks and Hamilton Counties: Suburban Indy’s Dynamic Duo

Hendricks County 4-H Fairgrounds and Conference Center

The Hendricks County 4-H Fairgrounds and Conference Center is a state-of-the-art venue that accommodates events of all sizes with flexible indoor and outdoor space. The conference center contains a total of 33,000 square feet of space, with a 1,000-seat auditorium, a commercial kitchen and several breakout rooms. Over the years, the facility has hosted several notable events, including the 17th triennial National Pow Wow and the 50th anniversary celebration of the Society for Creative Anachronism, which drew visitors from 40 states and eight countries.

Center for the Performing Arts

The Center for the Performing Arts is one of the crown jewels of Hamilton County, frequently hosting internationally acclaimed artists and family entertainment. The exquisite facility features three performance venues: the 1,600-seat Palladium concert hall, the 500-seat Tarkington Theater and the 200-seat Studio Theater. For additional rental space, the center also offers two 1,700-square-foot multipurpose rooms that each accommodate up to 170 guests. Inside the Palladium, visitors can stop by the Michael Feinstein Great American Songbook Gallery and Archive, which exhibits artifacts such as Fred Astaire’s dancing shoes, the original lyrics to “Unchained Melody” and sheet music signed by George Gershwin.
