Forty5 is a locally owned, boutique production company based in Indianapolis, dedicated to creating unforgettable live music experiences in the city’s most beautiful and unique spaces.
Our passion is socializing live music, while bringing people together through performances and collaborations.
Whether in a scenic park or an iconic venue, Forty5 curates events for everyone, making music an essential element of life in Indy, every day.
The 45 revolutionized the music scene, sparking a wave of innovative creators and daring rule-breakers, each delivering meticulously crafted hits that left a mark.
Similarly, in Indianapolis, streetcar 45 transformed urban mobility. As the inaugural line connecting downtown to Broad Ripple, it deposited passengers right at the doorstep of the iconic Vogue Theatre.
Both in sound and transit, the name "forty five" has been a symbol of connection for generations—uniting people in significant ways.
Embodying this tradition, Forty5 Presents is dedicated to gathering communities and celebrating shared experiences.
Forty5 believes a world with music everywhere is a beautiful world. We believe live music has the power to bring people together, be a catalyst for partnership, spark economic growth, strengthen communities, and increase the richness & quality of life for everyone.
We own, operate, and program some of the top destinations for entertainment across Indiana and throughout the Midwest. Our platform includes talent buying, event design and production, ticketing, box office management, and promotion.
We own and operate amazing venues such as The Vogue Theatre, Rock the Ruins at Holliday Park, and The Tobias Theater at Newfields.
We operate and promote a wide variety of public and private events on behalf of our owned venues plus other organizations, corporations, non-profits, and individuals.
We utilize the latest technology to push ourselves and our partners to streamline our operations for efficiency and value.
We demand the best from ourselves, our team, and our partners in the pursuit of supporting the artists and fans who count on us each night.
