Fall may be over, but Indy’s festival spirit never rests. Each autumn, Indianapolis comes alive with some of the city’s most beloved celebrations. From German-style revelry at Oktoberfest to art, food, and music at Heartland Film Festival, Monument Circle Art Fair, and Penrod Arts Fair. The Circle City Classic energizes downtown with parades and performances, while Irvington Halloween Festival brings spooky fun to one of Indy’s most historic neighborhoods.
