A Travel Guide to Greenwood, Indiana's Best Concerts & Events

The Greenwood Summer Concert Series at the Amphitheater

One of the crown jewels of the local arts scene is the Greenwood Summer Concert Series. Held at the Greenwood Amphitheater within Surina Square Park (100 Surina Way, Greenwood, IN 46143), these open-air concerts are a staple of Saturday nights during the warmer months. The venue offers a fantastic, family-friendly atmosphere where the community gathers to listen to everything from classic rock tribute bands to country stars and local jazz ensembles. The lawn seating encourages a relaxed vibe, but it also means carrying lawn chairs, blankets, and coolers is a necessity.

This is where Charter Bus Rental Company Greenwood truly shines. Instead of coordinating a convoy of five or six cars and struggling to find parking in the limited lots off Meridian Street, your entire group can load up into a spacious charter bus. Our buses feature ample undercarriage storage bays, perfect for stowing all your tailgating gear, folding chairs, and picnic baskets. Your driver can drop you off right at the entrance of Surina Square so you can claim the perfect spot on the lawn immediately. While you enjoy the music and the sunset, your driver handles the parking logistics. After the encore, you’ll have a climate-controlled cabin waiting for you, allowing you to cool off and relax on the ride home. Whether you are a senior community group, a large family reunion, or a neighborhood association, our shuttle services ensure everyone enjoys the show without the hassle.

Freedom Festival: Greenwood’s Biggest Celebration

Every summer, tens of thousands of people flock to Craig Park (10 E Smith Valley Rd, Greenwood, IN 46143) for the Greenwood Freedom Festival. This massive event features parades, local food vendors, live music on multiple stages, and one of the best fireworks displays in Central Indiana. However, with crowds this large, traffic on Smith Valley Road and Main Street can come to a complete standstill. Parking is often miles away, requiring long walks in the July heat.

By booking a bus rental with Charter Bus Rental Company Greenwood, you bypass the gridlock and the exhaustion. We can arrange for a shuttle service to drop your group off near the festival grounds before the roads get too congested. If you are organizing a group to march in the parade or a volunteer squad to help run booths, a minibus is the perfect solution to keep your team organized and on schedule. Our buses come equipped with powerful air conditioning—a lifesaver during Indiana summers—so your group can take a break from the heat if needed. Plus, with onboard WiFi and power outlets, you can upload all your fireworks photos to social media instantly on the ride home without draining your battery. Don’t let parking woes ruin your Independence Day celebration; let us handle the driving while you enjoy the festivities.

Wamm Fest: Wine, Art, Music, & Microbrew

For the adults in your group, Wamm Fest is an absolute must-attend event in Greenwood. Also held at Craig Park (10 E Smith Valley Rd, Greenwood, IN 46143), this festival celebrates the finer things in life: Wine, Art, Music, and Microbrew. It’s a day filled with tasting local craft beers, sampling regional wines, browsing art booths, and dancing to live bands. Because this event focuses heavily on adult beverages, comfort is the number one priority. Assigning a designated driver from your friend group is a buzzkill, and rideshare surge pricing during the festival exit can be astronomical.

The safest and most fun way to attend Wamm Fest is by renting a private charter bus from Charter Bus Rental Company Greenwood. Your driver acts as the ultimate designated driver for your entire party. You can sample the best IPAs and Merlots that Indiana has to offer without a single worry about how you’re getting back home. Our party buses and minibuses are perfect for this type of outing, offering plush leather seating and AUX/Bluetooth sound systems so you can keep the music going between the festival and your drop-off point. Gather your neighbors, your co-workers, or your wedding party and make Wamm Fest a stress-free tradition with reliable group transportation.

Concerts at Ruoff Music Center

While Greenwood has amazing local events, sometimes the big names call for a trip north. Ruoff Music Center (12880 E 146th St, Noblesville, IN 46060), located about 45 minutes to an hour north of Greenwood depending on traffic, is the premier outdoor amphitheater in the state. It hosts the biggest touring acts in the world, from Dave Matthews Band to country megastars and heavy metal festivals. The drive from Greenwood involves navigating I-65 through downtown Indianapolis and up I-69, which can be a headache during rush hour on a concert night.

Charter Bus Rental Company Greenwood specializes in long-distance concert transportation. When you book a charter bus for a show at Ruoff, the party starts the moment you leave Greenwood. You can utilize the onboard PA system to run trivia about the band, watch music videos on the flat-screen TVs, and enjoy the company of your fellow fans. Once you arrive, our buses can navigate the VIP or bus parking lots, getting you closer to the gate than general parking. After a long night of singing your heart out, there is nothing better than reclining in a comfortable seat and napping all the way back to Greenwood while a driver handles the post-concert traffic jam. We service groups of all sizes, so whether you have 20 people or 50, we have the right vehicle for your concert road trip.

Gainbridge Fieldhouse & Lucas Oil Stadium Events

Living in Greenwood means you are just a short drive down I-65 from world-class entertainment in downtown Indianapolis. Whether it’s a massive stadium tour at Lucas Oil Stadium (500 S Capitol Ave, Indianapolis, IN 46225) or an arena concert at Gainbridge Fieldhouse (125 S Pennsylvania St, Indianapolis, IN 46204), Charter Bus Rental Company Greenwood is your connection to the action. Parking downtown can be expensive and confusing, with garages often charging $40 or more for event parking.

For corporate outings , church groups, or large families heading downtown for a show, a charter bus is the most economical and efficient choice. We can drop you off right at the curb near the venue entrance. While you are inside enjoying the event, your bus will wait nearby. This is particularly helpful for winter concerts when you don’t want to walk blocks in the freezing cold. Our fleet have the highest standards, ensuring a warm and cozy environment waiting for you when the show ends. Let us handle the I-65 traffic while you discuss the setlist with your friends.

Rock the Clock and Fall Festivals

As the leaves change, Greenwood comes alive with autumn celebrations, including the popular "Rock the Clock" block party. This event typically takes place in the heart of downtown Greenwood near Main Street and Madison Avenue (Greenwood, IN 46142). It features local bands, food trucks, and a vibrant community atmosphere. Fall is also the season for high school marching band competitions, pumpkin patch visits, and harvest festivals.

Charter Bus Rental Company Greenwood is proud to support these local community events. If you are a school administrator organizing a trip for the marching band to perform, our full-sized motorcoaches have plenty of room for instruments, uniforms, and students. If you are a local business sponsoring a team outing to Rock the Clock, a sleek minibus shuttle shows your employees you care about their comfort and safety. These local events often involve street closures, making parking scarce. A shuttle bus service allows your group to be dropped off near the action without circling the block for thirty minutes looking for a spot.

Private Events and Corporate Outings

Beyond the public concert schedule, Greenwood is a hub for private events, weddings , and corporate gatherings that often feature live entertainment.
