UPDATED ISFEC STATEMENT ON CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19) – MAY 21 - 2:30PM

As we move forward with plans to host this year’s Indiana State Fair August 7-23, we continue to monitor the situation closely and follow the guidance of the State of Indiana and public health authorities. Until then, we encourage Hoosiers to stay healthy and strong as our community continues to rebound.

Governor Holcomb has detailed the state’s plans for a roadmap to reopening the Indiana economy as the COVID-19 pandemic continues with five stages leading to an anticipated full reopening by July 4. By July 4, the state hopes large events and mass gatherings, including the Indiana State Fair, August 7-23, will be allowed at full capacity. With these new guidelines in place, all events at the Fairgrounds have been suspended through the end of June. We are diligently working to reschedule those events that we can to a later date.

WELCOME TO AUGUST INDY 500! THE GREATEST 17 DAYS OF SUMMER JUST GOT BIGGER!

“We would like to officially welcome the Indy 500 to the Month of August. Two iconic events, our Great Indiana State Fair & the Indy 500 will surely make for an incredible month for our City and our State. August in Indy just got bigger!”
