We’re here to answer your questions, and tell you what you need to know before you come to the Colts VIP Tailgate on game day.
The tailgate is hosted at the Crane Bay Event Center at 551 W Merrill St, Indianapolis, IN 46225. (map) The Crane Bay Center had two open patio areas along with seating and couches to sit indoors.
From the Crane Bay, Lucas Oil Stadium is a short two block walk to the east down Merrill St. in downtown Indianapolis.
The tailgates start three hours before kickoff for all the Colts home games. You can double check the times here. The tailgate ends at the start of the game.
We have visits from the Colts cheerleaders, former Colts players, and NFL alumni, live broadcast site of ESPN 1070’s The Fan with JMV and Big Joe Staysniak, and the event is emceed by Laura Steele.
Great food, great drinks, and a party atmosphere.
