For the last 8 months, Indiana’s live music venues have been faced with unprecedented adversity. After surviving countless mandated closures and capacity restrictions, the reality of extinction is evident. With the touring industry essentially closed until Spring, these small businesses are now facing a long Winter with no shows. As the next wave of Covid-19 cases surge, consumers are retreating. What little hope these local companies had of surviving is diminishing by the minute. In the absence of meaningful federal assistance, despite overwhelming support of such measures, solutions are significantly limited. With no financial relief, no shows and no more options to pivot; the current situation is critical.

On behalf of the IIVA and our members, we'd like extend the most sincere "Thank You" for doing your part to #SaveOurStages. The only reason these venues are still in this fight is because of you. Join our fight to #KeepIndyLive.
