This event takes place at Hickory Hall Polo Club, Indiana’s only outdoor polo club, where the sport has been part of the Indianapolis area for more than 80 years. Polo is one of the oldest known team sports in the world, dating back over 2,000 years to Central Asia and Persia. Fast-paced and powerful, polo combines athleticism, strategy, and the beauty of horsemanship—making it an exciting experience whether you’re new to the sport or a long-time fan.
Live Music and Special Performances
You’ll be treated to live entertainment by Groove Smash, one of Indy’s top cover bands featuring Brownsburg Bands’ own assistant director John Marque. Members of The Sound of Brownsburg Marching Band will also perform the National Anthem to kick off the night.
Halftime Fun for All Ages
Don’t miss the crowd-favorite candy drop from an airplane (weather permitting), and join in the polo tradition of “divot stomping” at halftime—just like in the movies!
