‘Gr8 Comeback’: HI-FI Annex welcomes fans to new outdoor venue

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Operators at the HI-FI Annex are looking forward to concert fans coming to see its new outdoor venue in Fountain Square.

The venue’s operators are throwing concerts at a new outdoor venue Wednesdays through Sundays.

They’re kicking off these new events with the Friday Freestyle concert from 5-10 p.m. Friday. The event is featuring two local DJs. Josh Baker, HI-FI President and founder, says it took a lot of hard work to make the venue fan-ready in the midst of the COVID-19 crisis.

“We put this together in about 2½ weeks, which is pretty incredible in itself, but people need some music in their lives and we’ve figured out a way to do it safely,” he said. “We got an aggressive safety plan. I’d put it against anybody’s in the state in terms of keeping the club safe [and] keeping the artists safe.”

Baker says the event will also feature food from a HI-FI neighbor, Pure Eatery, and all ages are welcome to the event. They will also have an outdoor bar for guests 21 and older.
