Indiana Destinations: Symphony on the Prairie at Conner Prairie
Let’s kick off a new series exploring some of Indiana’s special places—and first up is Conner Prairie in Fishers, IN!
Set across 1,000 acres of natural beauty, Conner Prairie blends history, nature, and culture in one unforgettable setting. As Indiana’s first Smithsonian-affiliated museum, it preserves and brings Indiana’s past to life—almost like a little Williamsburg along the White River.
And then there’s Symphony on the Prairie… 🎻🎶
Picture yourself stretched out on the lawn with family and friends, a picnic nearby, and music filling the evening air—from the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra to fantastic cover bands spanning all kinds of genres.
It’s more than a concert—it’s a place to slow down, decompress, laugh, gather, and simply enjoy being together.
From William Conner’s historic homestead to the legacy of Eli Lilly, Conner Prairie is a beautiful reminder that Indiana’s history and its present-day experiences can live side by side.
Come for the history. Stay for the music. Leave with memories.
