Hometown hero, Ghostbuster among first Indiana State Fair free stage announcements
Hoosiers will get the chance to rock out with an Indianapolis music icon, Disney princesses and an actual Ghostbuster when the free stage starts rolling at the 2025 Indiana State Fair.
Why it matters: The free stage continues to be one of the fair's most beloved and cost-conscious annual staples.
Driving the news: Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds, Three Dog Night, Melissa Etheridge, Bill Murray & His Blood Brothers and Disney Throwback DJ Night are the first five acts confirmed to be hitting the free stage this August.
Three Dog Night will get the party started for opening day on Aug. 1, and the Disney DJ will rock the wheels of steel the following night on Aug. 2.
Indy native Babyface performs Aug. 6, actor Bill Murray's band plays Aug. 8 and Melissa Etheridge performs Aug. 15.
The 2025 Indiana State Fair runs Aug. 1-17 and is open every day except Mondays.
If you go: All shows at the Hoosier Lottery Free Stage are free with paid fair admission, and seating is first-come, first-served. A limited number of reserved viewing area tickets are available now.
