Boasting the moniker of “The Greatest Spectacle in Racing,” the Indianapolis 500-Mile Race, better known as the Indy 500, takes place every year over Memorial Day weekend. Roughly 300,000 rabid racing fans jam-pack the Indianapolis Motor Speedway’s permanent seating sections as well as the grassy area in the center of the race track known as the infield, for one of the premier racing events of the year. It’s first iteration occurred in 1911 and having grown exponentially in popularity and importance over the last century. This 200-lap race is considered to be one of the three most significant, prestigious automobile racing events in the world, along with the Monaco Grand Prix and the 24 Hours of Le Mans races. The race itself is so beloved that there is an ongoing festival that spans the month of May, and regularly boasts over 500,000 attendees. This fantastic turnout has made the festival one of the largest in the nation. It also includes one of the most anticipated parades in the country, outside of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Throughout the remainder of the year, however, Indianapolis has absolutely no shortage of things to do for fun-seekers of all ages. A very popular attraction among those with some steam to let off is the Wreck-A-Room. This unique establishment provides individuals or groups a building full of breakables, and multiple tools which are referred to as weapons. Cause as much carnage as your heart desires for the duration of your session. 

A much calmer, more educational outing is the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis. This substantial interactive museum has everything you could want in an educational experience and more, including an incredible five-level playground that has a completely functioning, rideable antique carousel. This extravaganza of a museum has many attractions for those with inquisitive minds, and is a can’t miss experience for the whole family.
