Music, comedy & professional wrestling to start Fishers Events Center calendar

Turnpike Troubadours

The Fishers Events Center has announced the first three shows to be offered at the new venue, currently under construction.

“We are joining the ranks of the amazing entertainment options in this market with something different to offer, having a unique opportunity to bring in great shows that are selling out arenas elsewhere in the country,” says Mitch List, Fishers Events Center General Manager. “We look forward to seeing the Fishers Event Center become a catalyst for so much growth as it fills a void for this community. We’re just getting started, and there’s a lot to come with much more to be announced in the coming weeks and months ahead.”

Here are the first three acts, with descriptions provided by the Events Center:

  • Turnpike Troubadours with Trampled by Turtles and Tyler Halverson – Friday, November 22, 2024 (Tickets on sale this Friday, July 19 at 10 a.m. ET)
    Turnpike Troubadours formed in 2005, assembling a lineup that eventually included frontman Evan Felker, lead guitarist Ryan Engleman, fiddle player Kyle Nix, bassist R.C. Edwards, drummer Gabe Pearson, and steel guitar and accordion player Hank Early. Their debut album, Bossier City, was released in 2007 and the first of five studio albums the group would release. Their self-titled 2015 album peaked at number 17 on the Billboard 200 and inside the Top 5 of U.S. Country, Folk, Rock and Indie charts. 2017’s A Long Way from Your Heart would peak at number 3 on the Billboard Top Country chart. In 2019, the band announced their indefinite hiatus. Two years later, in November 2021, the band teased their return and shortly after started announcing new shows starting in 2022, including two sold out dates at Red Rocks and an appearance at Bonnaroo.
  • Leanne Morgan – Saturday, November 30, 2024 (Tickets on sale this Friday, July 19 at 10 a.m. ET)
    Leanne Morgan has taken the world by storm and her national headlining tour is, “Just Getting Started!”  Following the breakout ratings success of her critically acclaimed Netflix special, I’m Every Woman, Morgan has sold out over 100 theater and arena shows across the United States – with often second, third, fourth and fifth shows added in major markets.  In an effort for more of her fans to have the chance to experience her hit show, Morgan is extending her theatre and arena tour into 2024 by adding shows in new markets across the United States.

“We’ve been working hard behind the scenes to build an unmatched venue that brings top-level talent to one of the most dynamic parts of our community,” said Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness. “These opening events at the Fishers Event Center will mark an incredible milestone for our city and there’s even more to come.”
