INDIANAPOLIS -- A Fountain Square live music mainstay is expected to move locations in early 2026, providing a new opportunity for year-round concerts in the neighborhood. The Hi-Fi and MOKB Presents announced on Monday that it will construct a new indoor venue in the Murphy Arts Center, the site that currently hosts the Hi-Fi Annex for outdoor concerts during the summer. The new indoor venue, which will tentatively share the name with the annex, will provide a permanent home for the Hi-Fi Annex.

With each expansion and renovation, we’ve moved closer to realizing our dream of creating a multifaceted entertainment and arts facility.” The new venue will double the size of the outdoor Hi-Fi Annex and will include a concert hall with a 1,200 capacity. It will also be located at the former site of the historic Granada Theater. “Fans can expect our continued commitment to delivering high-caliber entertainment and exceptional customer service—hallmarks of the experience we’ve provided over the past 10 years at HI-FI and the first five years of HI-FI Annex,” Dan Kemer, the partner and vice president of events, said in the release. “The new space and increased capacity perfectly complement our growing group of venues, which now includes LO-FI Lounge and HI-FI.
