About this venue
Vogue Theatre Indianapolis is a distinctive concert venue in the Broad Ripple neighborhood, housed in a former movie theater that opened in 1938. The building retains the character of a classic American cinema, with a recognizable facade and entrance marquee, while its interior has been adapted for concerts and other live events. Depending on the configuration, the venue can accommodate up to approximately 950 guests, giving it a more intimate character than the city's large arenas.
The compact layout keeps the audience close to the stage and creates an immediate live-music experience, supported by modern production facilities suited to a wide range of musical genres. Most concerts use a general-admission format, while tables and other upgrades are available for selected events. The venue is particularly notable for combining the historic character of a former cinema with the energy of a modern concert club.
The venue is located at 6259 N College Ave, Indianapolis, Indiana 46220, United States. Paid parking is available behind the venue, while the Broad Ripple Garage is directly across the street, allowing for a very short walk to the entrance. The Broad Ripple Red Line station is also nearby, at the intersection of College Avenue and Broad Ripple Avenue.

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.
