"America's Best Half Marathon" attracts participants from all 50 states and more than 16 countries. Saturday's event kicks off a month of racing in Indy. The course starts and finishes downtown and includes a 2.5-mile lap around the iconic Indianapolis Motor Speedway, nearly 100 entertainers along the route, 16 pit stations serving water and Gatorade Endurance, and a post-race party with beverages, free massages, merch, and more. Not ready for 13.1 miles? Do the Delta Dental 5K instead. Pick up your race materials at the Expo Thursday-Friday at the Indiana Convention Center, but you don't have to be registered for the Mini to shop the vendors and take part in interactive activities. Expo admission is free and race registration starts at $50.
George Strait is the King of Country, authentic, and a troubadour. Nominated for and won more CMA and ACM awards than any other artist, he's had more country hits than anyone. The legend will give it all he has Saturday at Lucas Oil Stadium and he'll be joined by the man who is as smooth as Tennessee whiskey. His songs are anything but cold and Chris Stapleton was named ACM's Artist-Songwriter of the Decade for good reason. This traveller has earned the admiration of musicians from all genres including Bruno Mars, John Mayer, Taylor Swift, and Rage Against the Machine. Openers Little Big Town have the perfect soundtrack for day drinking on a pontoon, a visit to the little white church, and everything in between. Tickets are $50 and up.
Enjoy public art Saturday on a free, self-guided tour of Broad Ripple Village. Explore the boutiques, restaurants, shops, and galleries while you support the arts community. Participating businesses are hosting music, wine tastings, visual art, crafts, and more unique exhibits like the one-day-only display at Flanner Buchanan featuring a Beatles collection from Tom Fontaine.
The most unique stage in the city comes alive Friday-Saturday for Candlelight Theatre's production at the Benjamin Harrison Presidential Site. Murder, suspense, and a bit of comedy, too, accompany your tour of the historic home. The back parlor hosts "The Inexperienced Ghost," while "The Proposition" inhabits the sitting room, and the dining room is home to "The House of Sanity." Benjamin and Caroline Harrison staged plays in this home in the mid-1800s, so you're continuing a long tradition. Tickets start at $21.
Every trip to SoChatti Chocolate Tasting Room is a time for indulgence with artisanal dark chocolate that is vegan, gluten free, nuts free, dairy free, soy free, and delicious. Visit Friday for discounted chocolate activities, wine, jewelry, live music from Nautilus, and pieces from featured artists Larissa, Jenna, Wolfe, and Sarah. Admission is free, reservations are recommended, and you may choose from three timeslots.
