Overview
Celebrate Juneteenth on Morris Bicentennial Plaza! Join a pregame Juneteenth Celebration, presented in partnership with Indy Juneteenth, before the Indiana Fever take on the Connecticut Sun.
This free, family-friendly event honors the rich history, art, and culture of Juneteenth with a vibrant mix of live music, food samples, local vendors, and interactive educational activities, including:
- Live music from The Downstroke Band, a soulful Black band with legendary local roots
- Bite sized samples from local Black food vendors that bring Juneteenth traditions to life
- The Black Worldschoolers Mobile Bookstore featuring stories that educate, uplift, and celebrate Black culture
- A special pregame appearance from Freddy Fever.
We’re proud to partner with The Give and Grow, a woman-led initiative rooted in community, wellness, and the love of basketball. Known for their beautifully curated NBA-themed planters and commitment to youth development, The Give and Grow will be on-site selling their branded planters. The first 50 guests who purchase a planter will receive a free small plant to symbolize growing something meaningful this Juneteenth.
Come early, celebrate boldly, and root yourself in joy, growth, and culture.
