Levitt VIBE Indianapolis Music Series Returns for Third Season at CAMi

Sofia Rei

Levitt VIBE Indianapolis Music Series is returning in 2026 for its third season and will take place at the Contemporary Art Museum of Indianapolis (CAMi) — formerly known as Tube Factory — in the Garfield Park neighborhood on the south side of Indianapolis. These creative gatherings feature a variety of music styles and dance performances, food trucks, picnicking, games, creative activities, open art galleries, and pop-up markets. Concerts happen outdoors in CAMi's Terri Sisson Park greenspace and amphitheater, and will move inside one of the campus's buildings in case of bad weather.

Each concert features at least one Latine act curated by Eduardo Luna, founder of Arte Mexicano en Indiana.

"We're excited to continue our partnership with Big Car for the Levitt VIBE Indianapolis Music Series, now at a transformed venue and institution,” Luna said. “The growth of this campus mirrors the growth of Latine arts and culture in Indianapolis, and these concerts remain vital platforms for Latine artists near and far." 

The May 3 concert date aligns with the grand opening weekend of CAMi's 40,000-square-foot museum expansion, a significant milestone in Big Car and the campus's history. Guests will be able to explore the newly renovated main building and its exhibits during the concert.

"These events are happening at a campus that has been completely transformed. The opening of CAMi is a huge step for our community and for Indianapolis,” Big Car Collaborative Executive Director and Co-founder Jim Walker said. “Levitt VIBE is the perfect way to invite everyone in — free music, incredible art, great food, and people coming together right here in our neighborhood." 

Concerts are once a month on the first or second Sunday, from noon to 3 p.m., from April through November. The dates are: April 12, May 3, June 7, July 12, Aug. 9, Sept. 13, Oct. 11, and Nov. 8.

Levitt VIBE Indianapolis is presented by the Levitt Family Foundation in partnership with Big Car Collaborative and Arte Mexicano en Indiana, with support from Jungclaus-Campbell, Efroymson Family Fund, Eskenazi Health, and Lumina Foundation.

This year's eight-concert series showcases a diverse roster of local, regional, national, and international talent across genres including hip-hop, jazz, folk, Latin, electronic, rock, classical, world, bluegrass, dance, and more. Concerts after April feature curated pop-up markets alongside rotating local food trucks.
