About this venue
Egyptian Room at Old National Centre is one of the most distinctive concert halls within Indianapolis' historic Old National Centre complex. Inspired by Ancient Egypt, the interior stands out for its richly detailed design, hand-carved murals and decorative chandeliers. Covering roughly 16,040 square feet, the venue can accommodate up to around 2,000 guests depending on the event configuration, making it well suited to concerts, live performances and other large-scale events.
A large stage and professional sound and lighting production support an immersive live-show experience, while the audience layout varies between events. For many concerts, the main floor is arranged as a general-admission standing area, while raised sections may feature cabaret-style seating, so checking the configuration for a specific event before purchasing tickets is recommended.
The venue is located inside Old National Centre at 502 N New Jersey St, Indianapolis, United States. The main parking lot is directly in front of the venue's marquee and is entered from Alabama Street, while the additional North Lot is at the corner of North Street and New Jersey Street. The complex's main entrance is accessible, and visitors looking for broader transportation options across Indianapolis can find additional information further down the page.
About the city
Indianapolis, an energetic city in the heart of the American Midwest, is not only an important sports and business hub but also a recognizable destination for concerts, tours, and major competitions. Visitors are drawn to the mix of a modern urban scene and a relaxed atmosphere, making it easy to plan a night out around an event—before, during, or after the program. The city is known for well-organized downtown districts and a sense of smooth flow, which makes going to an event feel simple and enjoyable.
Getting around is convenient with IndyGo, and the rapid Red Line stands out for connecting key parts of the city and making it easier to reach the main arenas and stadiums, such as Lucas Oil Stadium and Gainbridge Fieldhouse. If you arrive by train, the landmark is the historic Indianapolis Union Station, while for air travel the main gateway is Indianapolis International Airport (IND). The combination of road connections, parking, and public transit means you can move quickly from your accommodation to the venue entrance even on big event days.
When you have some free time, it’s worth taking a walk around Monument Circle and exploring downtown at an easy pace, and a great “reset” before or after a concert is the Canal Walk by White River State Park, perfect for a waterside stroll and city photos. For an extra dose of urban energy, Mass Ave and the nearby streets offer bars, restaurants, and spots that fit naturally into an evening plan.
As for accommodation, Indianapolis offers it all—from downtown hotels within walking distance to more budget-friendly options in the wider area—so it’s easy to match the trip to your budget. Add a varied food scene and a reputation for hospitality, and you get a city where going to an event is more than just a ticket: it’s a complete city experience.
